2 lg Potatoes; peeled, diced
8 oz Paneer; crumbled
+=OR=+
1 c Cottage cheese
1/2 ts Ground cardamom
1/2 ts Salt
2 tb Raisins
2 tb Salted cashews

MMMMM---------------------------GRAVY--------------------------------
3 lg Tomatoes; chopped
1/2 c Plain yogurt
1/2 c Water
1/4 c Chopped cashews
1 tb Ginger garlic paste
2 ts Red chili powder, divided
1 tb Ghee or canola oil
2 ts Garam masala
2 tb Sugar
2 tb Dried fenugreek leaves
4 tb Heavy whipping cream; opt

Place potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with water.
Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and cook for 10 minutes or
until tender; drain. Mash potatoes; cool to room
temperature.

Set air fryer @ 375ºF/190ºC.

In a large bowl, stir together potatoes, paneer,
cardamom and salt until combined. Spoon 2 tablespoons of
potato mixture in lightly greased hands and flatten to
1/8 in. thick. Press a raisin and cashew in the center;
bring sides up to enclose. Gently roll into a ball.
Repeat with remaining potato mixture. Spritz fryer
basket with cooking spray. Working in batches if needed,
place balls in a single layer in basket lined with
parchment. Cook until golden brown, 10-15 minutes.

Meanwhile, for the gravy, in a 6-qt. electric pressure
cooker, combine tomatoes, yogurt, water, cashews, ginger
garlic paste and 1 teaspoon red chili powder. Lock lid;
close pressure-release valve. Adjust to pressure-cook on
high for 6 minutes. Quick-release pressure. Puree
mixture using an immersion blender until smooth. Strain
mixture, pressing to extract as much liquid as possible;
discard solids. Wipe insert clean.

Select saute setting and adjust for medium heat; add
ghee. When ghee is hot, add garam masala and remaining 1
teaspoon red chili powder; cook, stirring constantly,
until very fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Stir in strained
tomato mixture and sugar. Simmer, uncovered, until
mixture is slightly thickened, 5-8 minutes. Add
fenugreek and, if desired, cream; cook 1 minute. Pour
mixture over kofta.
