The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. You can prepare the kofta kebab patties in advance and store them at room temperature for up to 1 hour, covered with plastic wrap, if you're expecting guests.

Step 5
Place the prepared pieces in the microwave for 3 minutes, covering them with a special lid to prevent splattering. The exact time depends on your microwave's power—it may take 2 minutes or up to 5 minutes. The kofta kebabs are done when they are thoroughly steamed through and a clear juice comes out from the inside.
