Lauki Ke Kofte Recipe | Bottle Gourd Kofta Curry

Lauki Ke Kofte Recipe or Bottle Gourd kofta is an Awadhi cuisine recipe, which is also known as doodhi ke kofte or Ghiye ke kofte. It is basically a stuffed dumpling(kofta) prepared in masala fanfare. Lauki is also known as Bottle guard and has numerous health benefits. Bottle gourd is rich in dietary fiber and not loved by many. Bottle gourd juice is also helpful in losing weight.
