For the Curry:
- 2 large onions, finely sliced
- 4 boiled eggs, peeled and kept whole
- 2-3 green chilies, slit (optional)
- 1 teaspoon sabut garam masala (whole spices, such as bay leaf, cloves, cardamom, and cinnamon)
- 1 teaspoon red chili powder (adjust to taste)
- 1 tablespoon coriander powder
- 1 teaspoon meat masala
- 1 cup yogurt, whisked
-1/2 cup oil
- Salt to taste
- Water as needed

- Chopped cilantro (hara dhaniya) for garnish








Instructions:-
Prepare the Kofta:
1. Mix the Kofta Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the minced chicken, finely chopped onion, ginger-garlic paste, red chili powder, coriander powder, meat masala, and salt. Mix well until all the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
2. Form the Kofta Balls: - Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape each portion into a ball. You should get around 15 kofta balls.
Prepare the Curry:
3. Sauté the Onions: In a large pan, heat oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and sauté until they turn golden brown.
4. Add Spices: Add ginger-garlic paste, slit green chilies, and the sabut garam masala. Sauté for a few minutes until fragrant.
5. Add Ground Spices: - Add red chili powder, coriander powder, and meat masala. Mix well and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
6. Incorporate Yogurt: Lower the heat and slowly add the whisked yogurt, stirring continuously to avoid curdling. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the oil begins to separate from the gravy.
7. Add Water: Add enough water to reach your desired consistency for the curry. Bring it to a gentle simmer.
8. Add Kofta: Gently add the raw kofta balls into the simmering curry. Cover and cook on low heat for about 15-20 minutes, or until the koftas are cooked through. Be careful when stirring to avoid breaking the kofta balls.
9. Add Boiled Eggs: After the kofta is cooked, gently add the boiled eggs to the curry and let them simmer in the gravy for an additional 5 minutes to absorb flavors.
10. Final Seasoning: Check for seasoning and adjust salt and spices as needed.
11. Garnish: Once done, turn off the heat and garnish with chopped cilantro.
