Lamb Kofta with Hummus is a delicious yet quick lunch or dinner idea.
A quick one that looks fancy at that!
You can also use beef or even half beef, half lamb.
Also, make sure! You have to have a decent amount of fat in your mince, it keeps them light and stops them from drying out.

Ingredients
1 kg Lamb mince
1 tsp ground oregano
1 tsp Cumin
5 garlic cloves, crushed
1 tsp Salt & pepper
1 tsp Olive (or chilli) oil
1 tsp Paprika
1 tbsp Pine nuts
1 Fresh Mint, to garnish
1 Tub Hummus
Directions
- Skewers, if bamboo soak in water for an hour or so.
- Combine minced meat with spices, garlic and salt and pepper and gently combine.
- Form into small sausage shapes. Slip a skewer through the middle and use your palm to make sure it’s firm around the stick.
- Lightly spray each sausage with olive oil and BBQ or cook on a griddle pan until slightly crisp on the outside but just cooked through.
- To Make The Hummus
- Warm the hummus in a bowl covered in glad wrap in the microwave for about 50 to 60 seconds then stir to make it creamy.
- Place it on a plate, pour over a little olive oil or chilli oil, and sprinkle over pine nuts and mint.
- Add the kofta to the plates and enjoy!
