  • Half a kilo of kofta
  • 2 potatoes, or as desired
  • 1 head of garlic
  • Half a bunch of fresh coriander
  • 1 tablespoon ghee
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 beef stock cube
  • 3 tablespoons tomato paste

  1. Form the kofta into small balls and fry them in a little oil until they take on a light color.
  2. In a second pot, sauté the crushed garlic in a little ghee until it just softens, then add the finely chopped fresh coriander.
  3. After stirring, add the potatoes cut into medium cubes along with the tomato paste or sauce, water, the stock cube, spices, and salt.
  4. Once boiling, gently add the kofta balls, and leave the stew on low heat until the potatoes are cooked.
  5. Serve the rice with vermicelli alongside the kofta stew.
