How to cook it
Prep timer
30:00
- Set a large skillet or saute pan over medium to medium-high heat and keep the ingredients close so the cooking stays fast and even.
- 1. Combine ground lamb, diced onion, garlic, cumin, paprika, chili flakes, coriander, and salt in a mixing bowl and mix thoroughly.
- 2. Divide the mixture into 6 portions and shape each into a long oval around a skewer, covering one end completely.
- 3. Heat a non-stick frying pan or BBQ plate on high, add a dash of olive oil once hot, and place the koftas in the pan.
- 4. Brush the koftas with olive oil using a rosemary sprig, leave the sprig in the pan, and cook for 2 minutes until charred on one side.
- 5. Turn the koftas after 2 minutes, then again after another 2 minutes, reducing heat to medium and cooking for 8 minutes, watching to prevent burning.
- 6. Turn once more and cook an additional 8 minutes until cooked through, then serve with sour cream and cucumber dip.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning at the end, then serve while everything is hot or freshly chilled.
