#comfortfoodrecipes - Kadhi is my personal favourite and a great comfort food for me. So here in this recipe, I made some raw jackfruit koftas to go with the kadhi. I gave a twist by just adding some homemade mango pickle to the kadhi to enhance the flavour. It can be had with jeera rice, plain biryani, pulao, plain steamed rice, naan, tandoori roti or chapati.
