- Alright time to make the curry base!.
- In some heated oil, add the onions, ginger and garlic pastes, cinnamon stick, cloves, cardamom pods and bay leaves.
- Once the onions have softened add the tomatoes, green chilli and all the masala powders: coriander, cumin, garam masala and turmeric powder. I added a cup of water and also the beaten yogurt. Let the curry start to boil and then about 7 minutes later, gently drop the kofta balls into the curry.
- I made sure the kofta balls didn't touch each other and also I did not stack them.
- Cook on medium low and put a lid on the pot. Give it around 25minutes and check if the meat balls are cooked. It should be and the curry will be nice and thick and extremely flavourful.
