Beef Kofta

Our Beef Kofta are robust, full-flavoured meatballs made from coarsely minced halal beef, seasoned generously with whole spices and herbs in the tradition of classic Pakistani kofta salan. The beef mince gives these koftas a richer, earthier flavour than chicken versions — they hold their shape beautifully in gravy and absorb the curry base deeply, creating a dish that tastes as though it’s been slow-cooked all day. A family favourite served over steamed basmati rice or alongside freshly baked naan.

Ingredients

Halal beef mince, onion, ginger-garlic paste, green chili, fresh coriander, cumin, garam masala, coriander powder, red chili, black pepper, egg, salt.

Cooking Instructions

Kofta Curry (Recommended)

1. Thaw koftas for 30–40 minutes.
2. In a heavy-bottomed pot, prepare a curry base: fry onions until golden, add ginger-garlic paste, tomatoes, yogurt, and whole spices.
3. Once oil separates from the masala, gently add koftas.
4. Cover and simmer on low heat for 20–25 minutes.
5. Finish with fresh coriander and serve with rice or naan.

Shallow Frying (Appetiser)

6. Thaw and pan fry in medium oil for 10–12 minutes, turning regularly until browned.

💡 Tip: Adding a tablespoon of plain yogurt to the curry base before adding koftas helps stabilise the gravy and prevents it from becoming too oily.
