Kofta Banana

“Banana Kofta is a delicious and wholesome Indian dish made with raw bananas (plantains), mashed and mixed with spices, herbs, and sometimes paneer or potatoes to form soft, flavorful dumplings. These koftas are lightly fried until golden and then simmered in a rich, aromatic tomato-onion or yogurt-based curry.

The raw banana lends a mildly sweet, starchy taste and a unique texture to the koftas, making this dish a delightful alternative to the more common vegetable or paneer koftas. The gravy is seasoned with traditional spices like cumin, coriander, turmeric, and garam masala, and can be made creamy or light, depending on regional style.

Banana Kofta is a nutritious and satisfying vegetarian option, often enjoyed with chapati, naan, or jeera rice. It’s a perfect choice for festive meals or when you want something comforting and special with a twist of South Indian or North Indian flavor.”
