FAQs

What's Mixed Vegetable Kofta?

Alright, Mixed Vegetable Kofta is basically comfort food dressed up. Think crispy, golden veggie balls made from a mix of grated or finely chopped vegetables, spices, and flour, all dunked in a rich, creamy tomato-based gravy. It's one of those dishes that feels fancy but hits you with all the cozy vibes. Perfect with naan, roti, or a steamy bowl of rice—it's vegetarian magic on a plate.

What veggies work best in Mixed Vegetable Kofta?

You've got options! Go for grated carrots, cabbage, zucchini, potatoes, peas, or even spinach. Potatoes are the MVP here for keeping everything together, while carrots and cabbage add some crunch. Pro tip: make sure you squeeze out any extra moisture from your veggies—no one wants soggy koftas.

Can I bake or air-fry Mixed Vegetable Kofta instead of deep-frying?

Oh, for sure! If you're keeping it light, baking or air-frying works like a charm. For the oven, preheat to 375 F (190 C), grease your tray, and bake for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway. Using an air fryer? Cook at 360 F (180 C) for 12–15 minutes until golden and crispy. You'll get all the flavor, none of the deep-fry guilt.
