Ingredients
- •1 lb ground beef
- •1 onion, grated and squeezed dry (liquid discarded)
- •2 cloves garlic, minced
- •1 tsp cumin
- •1/2 tsp ground coriander
- •1/2 tsp allspice
- •1/4 tsp cinnamon
- •1/4 cup chopped parsley
- •Salt and pepper to taste
Steps
- 1.Grate the onion, then squeeze it firmly in a fine-mesh strainer or clean towel to remove as much liquid as possible - excess moisture keeps the kofta from holding its shape on the skewer.
- 2.Mix the ground beef with the squeezed onion, garlic, cumin, coriander, allspice, cinnamon, parsley, salt, and pepper.
- 3.Shape the mixture around skewers into long oval patties, pressing firmly so they hold together.
- 4.Grill over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes per side until cooked through.
- 5.Serve hot with flatbread.
