Cooking With My Mom

Reinventing the traditional

I face a problem with my daughters, they don’t like kofta and I’ve always looked for ways to convince them to eat it.

I’ve thought of many ways to reinvent this dish, and this way finally proved successful. Adding bread soaked in milk, to the meat made it very tender and gave it a nice flavour. I didn’t add parsley, as the traditional recipe asks; instead I made an accompanying sauce in which you can add parsley, mushrooms, peppers or any other flavours.

I won’t even start explaining about the presentation that made it a five-star dish. Don’t be afraid of experimenting with this recipe; add or omit anything that you want, I’m sure that you’ll create a recipe that is all yours. Emily loved the mashed potatoes that we used to fill the kofta with.
