Marrakeshi kefta
1 servings
Ingredients
| Quantity | Ingredient | |
|---|---|---|
| 500 | grams | Finely minced lamb; (17 1/2oz) |
| 1 | large | Spanish onion |
| 2 | teaspoons | Ground cumin |
| 3 | teaspoons | Paprika |
| ¼ | teaspoon | Cayenne pepper |
| 1 | teaspoon | Coarse sea salt |
| 1 | large | Bunc fresh flat leaf parsley; very finely chopped |
| 1 | small | Bunc fresh coriander; very finely chopped |
| 12 | Leaves fresh mint; very finely chopped | |
Directions
Mix the lamb with all the other ingredients. Either pound in a pestle and mortar for 10 minutes to achieve a smooth consistency or give a quick whizz in the food processor. Leave to stand for at least an hour for the flavours to mingle.
When you are ready to cook, wet your hands with a little water and take a piece of the meat mixture about the size of a walnut. With your fingers, mould this along the length of a metal or wooden skewer. The kebabs are at their best cooked over charcoal, but can also be cooked under a pre-heated hot grill, or on a ridged grill placed over a high heat. Turn frequently and cook for 5-6 minutes. Serve with a pile of toasted cumin seeds, some coarse sea salt, a lemon and some flat bread.
