Ricotta gives the kofta a softer, creamier texture compared to paneer’s firmer bite. Once fried and simmered in the curry, the ricotta dumplings become light and almost melt-in-your-mouth, soaking up the rich flavours of the gravy.

A Comforting Indian Classic, Made by Manjari with Love
This dish is Manjari’s take on malai kofta, a favourite across North India and one she has perfected with her own special twist. Creamy ricotta is gently seasoned, shaped into delicate dumplings, and lightly fried until golden before being nestled into a silky tomato and cashew gravy. The result is dumplings that are light and tender, soaking up the flavours of the rich, aromatic sauce with every bite.
The curry itself is made the traditional way; tomatoes and onions cooked down with spices, blended with cashews and poppy seeds for natural creaminess, then finished with fenugreek leaves, yogurt, and a touch of cream. The spices here aren’t fiery but warming, creating a dish that is mild in heat yet layered in flavour. It’s indulgent enough for a special dinner but comforting enough to enjoy midweek.

Very tasty butter chicken with a bit of a kick. Enjoyed it immensely
Yay! So glad to hear you are enjoying Manjari's Butter Chicken. We love that each cook makes a recipe slightly different to others, and this one with a kick is so good!
The right amount of spice, very tasty and enough for two large eaters with our own rice. We took a couple of frozen meals away with us which saved cooking and was very convenient as we were out of range of takeaway. Will definitely buy this again.
We love hearing this Kate! Thank you for writing your review and so glad to hear our meals saved your cooking on holidays :)
Excellent with Naan Bread & rice
The perfect sides Leigh, we couldn't agree more!
This is our favourite Indian Curry and a regular favourite on our Food St orders.
Beautifully flavoured and spiced 'just right' with quality meat and ingredients and generous portions.
To be honest this beats 99% of restaurant's "butter chicken" style dishes.
I’ve had this over and over again and it never disappoints! Such great flavours and not at all sweet like some of the Indian restaurants here. It’s filling, delicious and packed with flavour
Thanks so much for your great feedback Angie!
