I saw this cheese cauliflower koftas in Raks Kitchen book marked but didn't get time to make them.When jaya announced bloggers marathon for Rak's kitchen then I decided to make this delicious cheese cauliflower koftas for her event.

Love this kofta recipe. Could you just clarify Point No 1 for making the kofta. You say that you mash the potatoes and make sure there is water in potato mash. Does that mean that you keep the potatoes moist?

I adore kofta curries, and always order them when we eat out. But it hardly ever is good. This one looks fabulous, specially the cheesy surprise in the middle.
