Kofta & Chips

Kofta and Chips are my favourite snack. The Kofta is "Turkish-inspired". It is super simple to make and I can eat loads of them.

Ingredients for Kofta:
500g Minced lamb
1 Onion - grated
2 Garlic cloves - grated
1  teaspoon ground Cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground Ginger
1 teaspoon Paprika
1 teaspoon Chilli powder
2  tablespoons minced fresh Mint
2 tablespoons minced Parsley
1 tablespoon Sumac
 1 egg
Salt & Pepper to taste

Mix all the ingredients well in a big bowl. Shape the mix into small oval patties.
Brush them with olive oil and grill them about 10 minutes on each side turning once.
I stuffed them in a pita with Harissa and Tahini and ate them with fried potato chips.
You may also serve them with yoghurt, couscous, rice or salad.
