Kofte is perfect for the barbecue, the pan or the oven, says Serif. I couldn’t agree more – this recipe is simple and delicious. All it needs is a salad.
Ingredients
500 g minced lamb1 medium onion, grated
2 garlic cloves, crushed
pinch of allspice
pinch of freshly ground black pepper
pinch of chilli flakes
pinch of sweet paprika
pinch of ground cumin

1 egg
Preparation
Mix the ingredients together with your hands, kneading until smooth. Wet your hands and roll walnut-sized pieces of mixture into balls. Flatten them slightly. Fry the kofte on a lightly oiled barbecue grill, or in a chargrill pan, for about 1 minute on each side.SBS cook’s notes

Hot Tips
Coconut milk/cream
It doesn't take that much effort to get the beautiful sweet mellow taste of fresh coconut. Try and source a coconut grater from an Indian shop or grate it yourself. Crack open a coconut, prize the meat from the shell and peel the brown skin away. Pop small chunks into the food processor or grate on a sharp grater.
Glossary
Thick Caramel Sauce
Thick Caramel Sauce is even more viscous than dark soy, this is used to add a depth of colour and flavour to many dishes. Surprisingly, despite its name, it is not sweet.
