Mod de preparare

Pas cu pas

1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, ground lamb, grated onion, fresh parsley, fresh mint, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and black pepper.
Aproximativ 5 min.
Nota bucătarului: Squeezing the grated onion dry helps prevent the kofta from becoming watery.
2
Mix the ingredients thoroughly with your hands until just combined, being careful not to overmix, as this can make the kofta tough.
Aproximativ 2 min.
Nota bucătarului: For best results, chill the mixture for 15-20 minutes to make it easier to shape.
3
Divide the meat mixture into 12-16 equal portions. Shape each portion into an elongated oval or cylindrical shape, about 2-3 inches long.
Aproximativ 8 min.
Nota bucătarului: Moistening your hands slightly can prevent the meat from sticking.
4
Prepare the tahini sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the tahini, lemon juice, minced garlic, cold water, and salt until smooth and creamy.
Aproximativ 3 min.
Nota bucătarului: Add more water, one tablespoon at a time, if you prefer a thinner sauce consistency.
5
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Alternatively, preheat a grill to medium-high.
Aproximativ 2 min.
6
Place the kofta in the hot skillet or on the grill. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides and cooked through.
Aproximativ 10 min.
Nota bucătarului: The internal temperature of the kofta should reach 71°C (160°F).
7
Serve the cooked kofta immediately with the prepared tahini sauce, alongside rice, pita bread, or a fresh salad.
