Wooden Skewers

500g pack minced lamb 

1 small red onion, finely chopped 

1 tsp ground coriander 

1 tbsp chopped mint 

1 jar Al'Fez Kofta Kebab

Pitta breads

 

For the Sauce: 

1 tbsp olive oil 

1 garlic clove, finely chopped 

2  cans chopped tomatoes

1-2 tsp harissa 

1 tsp sugar 

200g tub Greek yoghurt

2 tbsp toasted pine nuts

 

Method

 

 

1. Soak eight wooden skewers in water for 20 minutes, to stop them burning. 

 

2. Using your hands, mix the meat in a bowl with the onion, coriander, mint and plenty of seasoning. Shape into 8 sausages, about 10cm long, then thread a bamboo skewer through the centre of each. 

 

3. To make the sauce, heat the oil in a pan, add the garlic and briefly fry. Add tomatoes, harissa, sugar and Al'Fez Kofta Kebab. Simmer, uncovered, for 15-20 mins until sauce has thickened. 

 

4. Grill the kofte for 6-8 mins, turning until they are nicely browned (be careful not to burn the skewers). Spoon the sauce over a warm platter, drizzle over the yogurt and put the kofte on top. Scatter with pine nuts and serve with pittas or couscous.
