Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat and fry the koftas until they are golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels. 4. For the gravy, heat oil in a separate pan over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and allow them to splutter. 5. Add chopped onions and sauté until they turn golden brown. Stir in the ginger-garlic paste and cook for an additional minute. 6. Add tomato puree, red chili powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder, and salt. Cook until the oil separates from the masala. 7. Lower the heat and add cream or coconut milk, stirring continuously. Mix in the saffron milk and let it simmer for 3-4 minutes. 8. Carefully add the fried koftas to the gravy and let them simmer for another 5 minutes on low heat, allowing them to soak up the flavors. 9. Garnish with fresh coriander and serve hot with naan or steamed rice.
