Tips

Method

Step 1
Combine all ingredients (except olive oil) in a bowl and mix together with your hands.

Step 2
Divide the mixture into 12 portions and shape each into a log.

Step 3
Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium heat.

Step 4
Add the koftas and cook, turning occasionally, for 10 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.


Serving suggestion: Serve with a side salad or tabouli and minty yoghurt sauce.    

Food safety tip: If you are taking leftovers for lunch, koftas need to be kept cold so pack an ice brick.
