Lamb Kofta Kebabs Recipe

What you'll need:

• 500g minced lamb (not lean)
• 1 large onion finely chopped
• 3 tsp chilli flakes
• 3 crushed garlic cloves
• Bunch of finely chopped flat leaf parsley
• ½ a red pepper, finely chopped
• 2 large eggs
• Salt and pepper
• Oil for frying

Serves: 4

Method

First

Put everything except for the oil into a large mixing bowl, and give it all a really good mix - it’s best to get your hands in there, and pummel and knead it like you would a bread dough. Make sure the egg and parsley is evenly distributed.

Second

Take a good handful of the mixture, and shape it with the flat of your hand into a long sausage, about 20 cm long and 5 cm wide.

Third

You can either barbeque your kebab sausages over charcoal, which will give them a lovely smokiness. However, if the weather isn’t on your side, they are perfectly good when fried in a large pan and some oil for about 8 minutes each side, or until a deep brown colour.

Fourth

Serve in a flat bread, with sliced red onions, parsley and a dollop of yoghurt and chilli sauce.
