@capturedbysado: From my mom’s kitchen to yours — a recipe that never misses ❤️ flavorful koftas simmered in a rich tangy korma with aloo bukhara (dried sour plum). Ingredients For the Koftas (Meatballs): • 2 lbs ground beef • 1 medium onion, grated (raw) • ½ bunch cilantro, finely chopped • 1 tbsp garlic paste • 1 tbsp ginger paste • 1 tbsp ground coriander • 1 tbsp ground cumin • 1–2 tsp turmeric • 1 tbsp black pepper • 1 tbsp paprika • ½ tbsp salt (adjust to taste — can add more later while simmering) 💡 Tip: After grating the onion, squeeze out the onion juice and freeze it in a ziplock — my mom keeps it for marinades and other recipes (I’ll share how she reuses it soon 👀). For the Korma Sauce: • 2 medium onions, finely chopped (for sautéing) • ¼ cup oil • 2-3 tbsp tomato paste • 1 tsp turmeric • 2 tsp black pepper • ½ tbsp salt (adjust while cooking) • 1 tsp garlic paste • Warm/hot water — fill the pot 1-2 cups below the halfway mark •. dried sour plums (aloo bukhara) #afghan #afghantiktok #afghanfood #foodrecipe #fypシ
