That very afternoon I prepared Reshmi Kofta Curry. It’s a Sanjeev Kapoor Recipe, which I like a lot. I don’t know why, but that day I was really into a very cooking and experimenting mood. However, my Reshmi Kofta Curry turned out to be very very nice. It’s quiet easy to prepare and gets ready quickly.
