Kofta Ingredients

Yogurt Sauce Ingredients

Method

Kofta Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground lamb, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, chopped parsley, ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well using your hands or a wooden spoon until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

  2. 2

    Shape the Koftas

    Take a handful of the mixture and shape it into a sausage-like form around the skewers. Repeat until all mixture is used. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes prior to use to prevent burning.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill or griddle over medium-high heat. Brush the grill grates with olive oil to prevent sticking.

  4. 4

    Grill the Koftas

    Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the koftas are cooked through and have nice grill marks.

Yogurt Sauce Preparation

  1. 5

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a small bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, lemon juice, and salt. Stir until well mixed.

  2. 6

    Chill the Sauce

    Cover the yogurt sauce and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
