Nargisi Kofta Curry, Nargisi Kofta recipe is an awesome dish which will be a perfect dish for the party table. Royal, Elegant, Delicious, this dish will be an amazing curry that goes well with chapati, naan, any kind ofrice, pulaos or parathas.
This nargisi kofta curry gravy is made from onion, tomato, yogurt. It needs very basic and usual spices. The gravy is smooth, creamy and rich. Addition of cashew nuts makes it rich. But the star of the dish are the eggs coated with the mutton mince. You can even add some cream to give that extra richness if you want. But it tastes fantastic even without the cream.
The crispy, outer mince layer, and soft and creamy eggs in the center, are simply yummy. It is always a celebration time when there is nargisi kofta curry, so do not wait for any occasion and whenever you feel like celebrating make these melt in the mouth koftas. The koftas themselves are so tasty even without the curry that they can easily be served as a snack too.
I prefer to refrigerate the mutton keema for sometime as it helps to bind over the egg properly. So it is always a good idea to refrigerate.
