Lamb Kofta
400 grams lamb mince
2 tablespoons parsley
3 cloves garlic
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon coriander
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 egg
Mix everything up well in a large bowl. This will be easiest done with your hands. Shape it however you want - traditionally it is shaped into balls or around skewers.
To cook the kofta you could bake it, grill it or fry it. They don't take long, just make sure they are cooked right through. Then serve with other bits and pieces to make an arabic 'mezze', or make it into a more substantial meal by serving with rice or couscous and vegetables.
