Ingredients

  • 750 g lamb mince
  • 1 onion finely chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves crushed
  • small handful of fresh mint chopped
  • small handful of fresh flat leaf parsley chopped
  • 2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp ground coriander
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp chilli powder optional

Instructions

  • Place all the ingredients into a bowl (adding the chilli powder if you want a little bit of heat) and mix together with your hands until well combined.
  • Take a small handful of the mixture and form into a long, fat sausage shape, about 10cm (4"), and thread a skewer (if you use wooden ones, make sure you soak them in water for 30 mins first) through the middle, all the way to the ends to support the koftas. You might find you need to double the skewers to support the weight of them!
  • Depending on the size of your koftas, you should get around 12 from the mixture.
  • Cook on a barbecue for around 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally until cooked through. Alternatively, cook under a hot grill.
