Beef Kofta Wraps

Koftas

• 500g grass fed beef mince
• 1 onion
• ½ cup fresh flat leaf parsley leaves
• 1/ cup fresh coriander leaves
• 1 clove garlic
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1/ teaspoon ground coriander
• 1/ teaspoon allspice
• ¾ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon freshly ground pepper

Yoghurt dressing

• ½ cup natural yoghurt (we used coconut)

• ¼ cup fresh mint leaves (loosely packed)
• Juice of ½-1 lemon (to taste)
• Sprinkle ground garlic powder (to taste)
• 1-2 tablespoons olive oil
• Salt to taste

To serve:

• Large Lettuce leaves (we used cos) or your choice of wraps
• Sliced/shaved cucumber
• Optional Extras: coriander leaves, sliced tomato, sliced red onion, pickles, hommus
• 8 Bamboo skewers

Method:

1. Soak your bamboo skewers in water for at least 30 mins.
2. Mix your dressing ingredients:

Chop the mint finely and mix with all the other ingredients. Taste and adjust to your liking.

3. Place the onion, garlic and herbs in a food processer. Pulse to chop finely. Add the mince, spices, salt and pepper and process again until well blended and is a relatively smooth paste.
4. Using clean hands, gently form about an 8^thof the mince mixture around a skewer, squeezing gently to press it together and form the kofta/kebab shape.
5. Cook on a hot BBQ plate for about 8 minutes- turning regularly to brown it evenly all over.
6. To your choice of wrap/lettuce leaf, add your choice of toppings and a kofta. Drizzle with the dressing and sprinkle with added coriander leaves.
7. Enjoy!
