  • 500 g lamb mince
  • 1 red onion, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1 tsp (5 ml) ground cumin
  • 2 tsp (10 ml) ground coriander
  • ½ tsp (2.5 ml) ground cinnamon
  • juice and zest of 1 lemon
  • handful of parsley, roughly chopped
  • small handful of mint, roughly chopped
  • 1 egg
  • salt and freshly milled black pepper

 

Mix all the ingredients, except the egg and seasoning, in a glass bowl. Add the egg and mix until well combined. Season with salt and pepper and divide the mixture into 16 portions. Shape the portions into ovals, using cupped hands, and keep to one side. Heat a griddle pan and cook the koftas for about 5 minutes, turning occasionally, until just cooked through.

Serve warm or cold with toasted pitas, tzatziki, hummus and baba ghanoush.
