Easy beef koftas with brown rice and saffron yogurt.
Ingredients
- 500g beef mince
- 1/2 Large leek (roughly chopped)
- 1/4 cup chives (roughly chopped)
- 1 tablespoon pear sauce
- Salt (to season)
- 8 skewers
- Rice bran oil (for cooking)
To serve:
- Saffron yogurt (Refer to recipe)
- Brown rice
Directions
| 1. | If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 6 hours before cooking, or as long as you have time for. This helps to stop them from burning. |
| 2. | Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Line a baking tray with foil. |
| 3. | Process the leek and chives in a food processor until finely chopped. Add the mince, pear sauce and salt to season then process until the mixture is like a thick paste. |
| 4. | Divide the mixture into 8 portions. Take a portion of the mixture, and use your hands to form the meat around each skewer into a sausage-like shape. Place on the prepared tray and prepare the remaining koftas. |
| 5. | Brush the koftas with a bit of oil and place under the grill for 5 - 8 minutes, turning so it cooks on all sides, until just cooked through. |
| 6. | Serve on a bed of brown rice with saffron yogurt. |
Note
Low Chemical / Failsafe, Amines (from the yogurt)
