Kofta Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Skewers

    Soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before using to prevent them from burning.

  2. 2

    Make the Kofta Mixture

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground lamb, chopped onion, minced garlic, parsley, cumin, coriander, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

  3. 3

    Shape the Kofta

    Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape each portion around a skewer, forming elongated meatballs.

  4. 4

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat and brush with olive oil.

  5. 5

    Cook the Kofta

    Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the kofta is browned and cooked through.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove the kofta from the skewers and serve hot with your choice of dipping sauce or flatbread.
