Making Meatballs:

• Grind roasted chickpeas to fine powder.
• Add chopped green chillies, sliced onions, chopped coriander leaves, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp chilli powder, 1 tsp coriander powder and 3/4 tsp all spice powder and finely chop in a food grinder.
• Add 1 kg mincemeat and powdered chickpeas to the grinder and grind well again.
• Mince for kofta is ready.
• Grease tray with little bit cooking oil.
• Make flat-round kofta with mincemeat.
• Slightly fry meatballs (kofta) on low heat (due to chickpeas, koftas would be fried swiftly).
• Once fried from one side, turn the side with spoon.
• Make sure koftas are not cooked from inside otherwise the gravy wouldn't taste with koftas as expected.
• Once they turn into golden, remove from the pan and place aside.

Making Gravy:

• Fry two medium size onions (cut into slices) in cooking oil until browned.
• Once they turn slightly brown, add 1 large garlic (small pieces).
• Pressure cook for 2 to 3 minutes to ensure onions are cooked well. And also we wouldn't have to cook koftas too much.
• Add 3/4 tsp salt, 3/4 tsp cumin seeds, 3/4 tsp chilli powder, 3/4 coriander powder, 1/3 turmeric and 1/2 tsp garam masala (all spice powder).
• Add two large tomatoes (pieces).
• Mix 3 tbsp yogurt and 3 tbsp sour cream and add to the pan.
• Mix well and cook until oil appears separately. Gravy is ready.

Finalizing the Beef Malai Kofta:

• Add meatballs to the pan, mix with gravy and cook covered (dam).
• Now if you like, add 1/2 cup water for making more gravy. Mix a little bit.
• Add fresh coriander, 1 sliced green chilli and 1 sliced red chilli.
• Cook on steam with pan covered for few more minutes (dam).
• Delicious beef malai kofta is ready.
