Ingredients
- 350g lean lamb mince
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 2 tsp ground cumin
- 4 spring onions finely chopped
- 1/2 cucumber roughly chopped into big chunks
- 1 large tomato roughly chopped into big chunks
- 16 black olives
- splash of sherry vinegar
- small handful of mint leaves to serve - optional
- Preheat your grill to maximum.
- Tip the lamb mince into a bowl. Add the cinnamon and cumin, spring onions, garlic and a generous pinch of salt and pepper, then mix the whole lot together thoroughly – I find the best way is to dig your hands in there.
- Mould the mince mixture into 4 equal-sized sausage shapes and place on your grill pan or a baking tray.
- Grill the koftas for 5 minutes on each side or until well browned and cooked through.
- Meanwhile, toss the cucumber, tomato, olives and vinegar together in a bowl.
- Serve your koftas with this chunky salad – and an artistic scattering of mint leaves, if you like.
