Lauki kofta is a light tomato-based delicious gravy dunked with koftas made from bottle gourd (lauki or ghia or dudhi).

First time I heard about and also had lauki ke kofte at my in-law's home.

I had never heard nor knew that a curry is made from bottle gourd koftas.

I can surely say this kofta curry is absolutely jain cuisine coz i didnt used Onions, garlic and potatoes in this recipe which is strictly avoided in Jain style of cuisine.
