Restaurant Style Malai Kofta in White Gravy

A few years ago, restaurants started to experiment with Malai Kofta and it quickly became one of the most popular plate items on their menu. Malai Kofta is a curry dish made of lamb or chicken minced and blended with spices, typically ginger, garlic, cardamom, and cumin. The dish is then served in a gravy made of white flour, milk, and cream.
