Ingredients
Instructions
Prepare the aromatic paste by mashing the minced garlic with kosher salt using the flat side of your knife or a mortar and pestle to create a paste.
In a large bowl, add the ground lamb, garlic-salt paste, grated onion with its juices, and chopped parsley.
Sprinkle the spices over the meat mixture: coriander, cumin, cinnamon, allspice, cayenne pepper, ginger, and black pepper.
Using clean hands, mix all ingredients until well combined, but avoid overmixing.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Shape about 2 tablespoons of the meat mixture into an oval around a soaked bamboo skewer, ensuring it adheres well.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and cook the Kofta Kebabs for 4-5 minutes per side, turning occasionally, until cooked through.
