Ingredients

700g lean beef mince (can use lamb mince if you prefer)
2 tbsp Shemin’s Harissa Spice Blend (Can also use other blends such as Shemin’s Peri Peri, Cajun, Jerk, Tandoori, BBQ and Ras El Hanout)
1 tbsp crushed garlic
1 tbsp crushed ginger
½ tsp salt
1 small bunch coriander, chopped
1 egg, beaten

How to make Spiced Beef Koftas

Thoroughly mix all the ingredients together in a bowl. Leave to marinate for at least 2 hours or overnight if possible.
Preheat the grill and divide the mixture on to skewers to create evenly sized koftas.
Put the koftas under the grill or on the BBQ, and cook for 7-8 minutes until browned, then turn over and cook for a further 7-8 minutes until cooked through.
Serve the kofta skewers hot with warm pitta (or Shemin’s Indian Breads), houmous, tzatziki sauce, fresh feta, tomatoes, cucumbers, olives, sliced red onions and whatever else you can dream of.

Tips

Tips:

You can freeze them in a single layer until firm then place them in a zip-lock bag. Bake right from frozen there is no need to thaw. Just give them a couple of minutes more.
If using wooden skewers, they can burn easily over a hot grill. Soaking them in warm water for 10 to 30 minutes before threading will keep the skewers from cooking along with the food!
