Beef Kefta

Method

Beef Kefta

  1. 1

    Prepare the kefta mixture

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef with grated onion, chopped parsley and cilantro, minced garlic, cumin, coriander, paprika, cinnamon, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly using your hands until well combined.

  2. 2

    Form the kefta

    Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each into a flattened oval patty or small log shape, about 4 inches long.

  3. 3

    Cook the kefta

    Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the kefta patties in batches for about 3–4 minutes per side, or until fully cooked through and browned on the outside. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.

Tahini Sauce

  1. 4

    Mix tahini sauce

    In a small bowl, whisk together tahini paste, lemon juice, minced garlic, and salt. The mixture will thicken.

  2. 5

    Adjust consistency

    Gradually whisk in cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the sauce reaches a smooth and pourable consistency. Taste and adjust salt or lemon juice as needed.

Wrap Assembly

  1. 6

    Prepare the fries

    Cook French fries according to package directions or prepare fresh fries. Keep warm until ready to assemble the wraps.

  2. 7

    Warm the flatbreads

    Warm the flatbreads or pita breads in a dry skillet or oven just until soft and pliable.

  3. 8

    Assemble the wraps

    Place one or two kefta patties in the center of each flatbread. Top with a handful of French fries, a few slices of pickled cucumber, diced tomato, and shredded lettuce (if using). Drizzle generously with tahini sauce.

  4. 9

    Wrap and serve

    Fold the sides of the flatbread over the fillings and roll tightly into a wrap. Serve immediately while warm.
