- Place the kofta in a baking dish, layer the potato slices on top, then add tomato slices and sprinkle the spices over the vegetables.
- Dissolve the tomato paste and salt in water and pour over the dish so the liquid covers the meat and vegetables.
- Place the dish on the stove. When it comes to a boil, add slices of butter over the top and simmer over medium heat until everything is cooked through, being careful not to overcook so the potatoes hold their shape.
