Chili Powder , Lamb , Mint
Ingredients
8 – 10 Minutes Kofte is a seasoned ground meat mixture very similar to our meatball. However, kofte is typically grilled and is more cylindrical in shape and can be pressed right on to the skewer. Serve with Pita bread with other grilled or fresh vegetables. It goes nicely with a yogurt or tzatziki sauce.
1 pound leg of lamb, trimmed and cut into 1-inch cubes 3/4 cup chopped fresh parsley 1/2 cup chopped onion 1/2 cup chopped fresh mint 1 teaspoon salt 2 teaspoons fresh mint 1/2 teaspoon chili powder 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 3 garlic cloves
Directions
Place all ingredients except cooking spray in a food processor; process until smooth. Cover and refrigerate 2 hours.
Prepare grill.
Divide meat mixture into 6 equal portions. Roll each portion into a 6-inch rope. Insert an 8-inch skewer through center of each rope or press meat around the skewer.
Place kebabs on grill rack coated with cooking spray; grill 4 minutes on each side or until done.
