How to make Lamb Kofta | middle eastern classic | Lamb recipes | Your Mediterranean Chef

In a large bowl, combine the ground lamb, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, minced garlic, parsley, cumin, coriander, paprika, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using).

Add the egg to the mixture and mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Preheat your grill or broiler to medium-high heat.

Once the mixture is chilled, take a handful and mold it around a soaked wooden skewer to form a kofta shape. Repeat with the remaining mixture.

Place the skewers on the grill or under the broiler, cooking for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the koftas are browned and cooked through.

Remove from the grill and let rest for a few minutes before serving.

Serve the lamb kofta with pita bread, tzatziki sauce, and a side salad.
