Ingredients

  • 1.5 pounds Ground Lamb
  • 0.5 medium Onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 0.25 cup Fresh Parsley, chopped
  • 2 teaspoons Spices (cumin, coriander, paprika, cinnamon)
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 1 large head Cauliflower, riced
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil

Instructions

  1. 1In a large bowl, combine the 1.5 pounds ground lamb, 0.5 medium onion (finely chopped), 2 cloves garlic (minced), 0.25 cup fresh parsley (chopped), 2 teaspoons spices (cumin, coriander, paprika, cinnamon), 1 teaspoon salt, and 0.5 teaspoon black pepper. Mix everything together thoroughly with your hands until well combined.
  2. 2Shape the lamb mixture into small oblong patties. Carefully thread 3-4 patties onto each skewer, leaving a small space between them.
  3. 3Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, aiming for approximately 400-450°F (200-230°C).
  4. 4Place the kofta skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, turning once, until the lamb is browned and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 160°F (71°C).
  5. 5While the kofta is grilling, heat the 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat (around 300-350°F or 150-175°C).
  6. 6Add the 1 large head cauliflower (riced) to the hot skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cauliflower is tender and has a slightly softened texture.
  7. 7Remove the kofta skewers from the grill and let them rest for 2 minutes. Serve the spiced lamb kofta skewers alongside the cooked cauliflower rice.
