So after a lot of thinking and discussing with my loved ones, we decided to make Fish Kofta that are uncommon, tasty and total seafood treat. So I am quickly listing down the recipe below for all you wonderful people who have been so supportive of my latest cooking sessions.

Mix all the above ingredients and make them into small balls. Post this, fry the balls till they turn semi brownish. Once done, keep them aside till we make the gravy.
