Method-To prepare the Koftas….
Mix all the ingredients of kofta with water and make a tight dough(like gutta dough).
Make a small shaped round ball.
In boiling water pour the all koftas(balls) and let it boil for 3-5 min.
After boiling separate all koftas from the water. (don’t throw boil water). And cut all
balls in to pieces.
Take a pan and heat oil and fry all koftas and remove on paper towel.
For Gravy……

Add ginger-garlic paste and sauté and then add chopped tomatoes.
After tomato add turmeric powder, garam masala, dhaniya powder, red chili powder and salt to taste. Stir occasionally and add two tbspn of curd and stir.
Sauté all ingredients start leaving when oil and masala get the reddish color.
Now add the fried besan koftas for a while, now add the earlier boiled water of the koftas. (you can try this sabji dry until here without adding water).
Let simmer till the gravy gets 2 or 3 boils. Could add more water if thinner consistency of gravy is required.
Now besan ke kofte is ready. Garnish with chopped coriander leaves and serve hot with rice and chapatti.
