Ingredients

The following ingredients have 16 Servings
  • 400g/14oz lamb mince
  • 1 shallot, peeled, very finely chopped
  • 1 garlic clove, peeled, crushed
  • 1 tbsp sumac
  • 2 tsp garam masala
  • 1 tsp cracked black pepper
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 4 tbsp clear honey
  • 4 tbsp pomegranate molasses
  • ½ pomegranate, seeds only, to serve

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4. Alternatively, light the barbecue.
  • For the kofte, mix together all of the kofte ingredients in a large mixing bowl until well combined, using your hands.
  • Divide the kofta mixture into 16 equal portions and roll each into a small sausage shape. Place the kofte onto a non-stick baking tray and cook for 10-12 minutes, or until completely cooked through.
  • Meanwhile, for the glaze, pour the honey and pomegranate molasses into a small pan and heat gently until warmed through. Keep warm.
  • Remove the kofte from the oven, spear each one straight through the middle with a cocktail stick and arrange on a serving platter. Lightly brush the kofte with the warm glaze and sprinkle over the pomegranate seeds. Serve immediately.
