Lamb kofta is served and eaten by millions from India to Northern Africa and many places in between! These delightful little meatballs make up a dish with thousands of variations in form, size, texture, ingredients, preparation method, cooking technique and accompaniments.

Serving lamb kofta is brilliant in the run-up to summer; they are BBQ stars and go down a treat with adults and children thanks to their versatility. I usually pile them on a plate next to pittas, naans, salad choices including lettuces, cucumber, tomato, spring onion, chopped and sliced cabbage, carrot, red onion, some natural yoghurt/tahini/chilli/garlic sauces and a bowl of fresh chopped parsley, coriander and mint.

In terms of the meat – you can buy ready-minced lamb or if you feel like splashing out, get your butcher to mince some lamb shoulder – the taste is incredible and is well worth the spend if you have some appreciative carnivores.

Ingredients

  • 400 grams of minced lamb
  • 1 small white onion, chopped finely
  • 3 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1 medium red chilli, chopped finely
  • A handful of flat-leaf parsley, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons of oil
  • 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon of ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon of ground allspice
  • A dash of both sumac and ground cumin
  • Pinch of salt and black pepper

Instructions

  1. Combine the spices in a bowl.
  2. Chop up or crush onion, chilli, parsley and garlic.
  3. Put your minced lamb into the mixing bowl, add in chopped onion, chilli, parsley and crushed garlic. Next, add your spice mix and (using your hands!).
  4. Once combined well, starts shaping your lamb mix into kofta.
  5. Press kofta to compress them well and line them up on a plate.
  6. Pour oil into your frying pan and put on high heat.
  7. Place kofta into hot pan and sear, turning to ensure all sides are nicely browned (you can do this in batches if you have a small pan!).
  8. Once all kofta is seared (it should take about 4 minutes per batch), you can lift it out of the pan and pop it into your lined roasting tray.
  9. Put into the oven for another 4 minutes (feel free to toss some pine nuts into the roasting tray too). Spoon finished kofta onto plates, sprinkle a little parsley over the top and serve warm.
