(AI Generated)<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p id=\"0\" class=\"story_para_0\">When fasting or celebrating festivals, every household seeks something special to serve. Balancing light, easily digestible food with flavour can be a challenge, but Sabudana Kofta offers the perfect solution. This dish is not only ideal for fasting, but its rich taste also makes it suitable for festive occasions.<\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\">Unlike traditional fasting favourites such as Sabudana <em>Khichdi<\/em>, <em>Vada,<\/em> or <em>Kheer<\/em>, Sabudana Kofta brings a fresh twist to the menu. With a crisp exterior and a soft, flavourful interior, it appeals to both children and adults. The koftas are cooked in a lightly spiced curd gravy, creating a combination that is quick, easy, and sure to impress.<\/p>\n<h2>Ingredients<\/h2>\n<h3>For Kofta<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"listOncontentArticleUL\">\n<li>1 cup sabudana (soaked for 4-5 hours)<\/li>\n<li>2 medium boiled potatoes<\/li>\n<li>2 tablespoons roasted and coarsely ground peanuts<\/li>\n<li>1 green chilli, finely chopped<\/li>\n<li>Rock salt, to taste<\/li>\n<li>Oil to fry<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>For Gravy<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"listOncontentArticleUL\">\n<li>\u00bd cup whipped curd<\/li>\n<li>\u00bd teaspoon turmeric powder<\/li>\n<li>\u00bd teaspoon red chilli powder<\/li>\n<li>\u00bd teaspoon rock salt<\/li>\n<li>1 tablespoon <em>ghee<\/em><\/li>\n<li>A pinch of asafoetida<\/li>\n<li>1 cup water (or as required)<\/li>\n<li>Fresh coriander for garnish<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Recipe<\/h2>\n<p id=\"8\" class=\"story_para_8\"><strong>Prepare The Kofta:<\/strong> Soak sabudana for 4-5 hours, then drain. In a bowl, combine sabudana, boiled potatoes, peanuts, green chilli, and rock salt. Mix well and shape into small balls. Heat oil in a pan and fry on medium heat until golden and crispy. Drain on paper towels.<\/p>\n<p id=\"9\" class=\"story_para_9\"><strong>Prepare the Gravy:<\/strong> Heat <em>ghee<\/em> in a pan and add asafoetida. Stir in whipped curd, turmeric, red chilli powder, and rock salt. Cook on a low flame, stirring constantly to prevent curd from splitting. Add water if the gravy is too thick.<\/p>\n<p id=\"10\" class=\"story_para_10\"><strong>Combine Koftas and Gravy:<\/strong> Gently add fried koftas to the gravy. Cover and simmer for 5 minutes to allow the flavours to blend.<\/p>\n<p id=\"11\" class=\"story_para_11\">Garnish with fresh coriander and serve hot. Sabudana Kofta can be enjoyed alone or with fasting-friendly roti.<\/p>\n<h2>Tips For Best Results<\/h2>\n<ul class=\"listOncontentArticleUL\">\n<li>Fry koftas on medium heat to ensure they cook evenly.<\/li>\n<li>Whisk curd well before adding to the pan to prevent splitting.<\/li>\n<li>Adjust green chillies according to your spice preference.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"jsx-ff263f4b724d470d jsx-3462393080 artcta\">\n<div style=\"font-family:Inter;font-size:17px;line-height:29px\"><span data-olk-copy-source=\"MessageBody\">News18 Lifestyle section brings you the latest on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/lifestyle\/health-and-fitness\/\">health<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/topics\/fashion\/\">fashion<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/lifestyle\/travel\/\">travel<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/lifestyle\/food\/\">food<\/a>, wellness tips, celebrity style, travel inspiration and recipes. <\/span>Also\u00a0Download the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/eng-article-eop\">News18 App<\/a> to stay updated.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-ff263f4b724d470d jsx-3462393080 brdcrmb\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/\">News<\/a>  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/lifestyle\/\">lifestyle<\/a>  <span class=\"brdout\"> Sabudana Kofta Recipe: Perfect For Fasting Or Feasting!<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"coral-wrap\" class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f \">\n<div class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f coral-cont\">\n<div class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f coltoptxt\">Disclaimer: Comments reflect users\u2019 views, not News18\u2019s.
