Kofka Skewers

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Kofka Mixture

    In a large bowl, combine the ground lamb, ground beef, chopped onion, minced garlic, chopped parsley, ground cumin, ground coriander, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

  2. 2

    Shape the Skewers

    Divide the meat mixture into equal portions and shape each portion around a skewer, pressing firmly to ensure it adheres to the skewer. Shape into long, flat kebabs.

  3. 3

    Chill the Skewers

    Place the skewers on a tray and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This helps the kofka hold its shape during cooking.

  4. 4

    Cook the Skewers

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly brush the skewers with olive oil. Grill the kofka skewers for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until cooked through and nicely browned.
