Instructions

1. 1Preheat your grill or oven to about 205°C (200°C).
2. 2Finely chop the 1 medium onion and 3 cloves of garlic. Finely chop the 0.5 cup of fresh parsley.
3. 3In a large bowl, combine the about 680 g ground lamb, the chopped onion, the chopped garlic, the chopped parsley, 1 tsp cumin, 0.5 tsp coriander, 1 tsp salt, and 0.5 tsp black pepper. Mix everything together thoroughly with your hands until well combined.
4. 4Shape the lamb mixture into small oblong shapes. Thread these shapes onto skewers.
5. 5Place the skewers on the grill or in the oven. Cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the kofta is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 71°C.
6. 6While the kofta is cooking, prepare the tahini sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together the 0.5 cup tahini, 3 tbsp lemon juice, 3 tbsp water, and 1 clove minced garlic until the sauce is smooth. If the sauce is too thick, add a little more water, one tablespoon at a time, until it reaches your desired consistency.
7. 7Serve the kofta skewers with the prepared tahini sauce.
