👨🍳 निर्देश
- 1
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, chopped onion, minced garlic, chopped parsley, green chili (if using), seven spice mix, salt, black pepper, and cardamom powder. Knead the ingredients with your hands until well combined. Shape the mixture into elongated meatballs or flatten into a uniform layer in a baking dish.
💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: For a smoother texture, you can pulse the kofta mixture in a food processor a couple of times. - 2
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Lightly season the potato wedges or slices with salt and pepper and toss them with vegetable oil. Arrange the kofta (meatballs or flattened layer) and potatoes on a large baking sheet or in a casserole dish.
⏱️ 20 minutes - 3
Roast the kofta and potatoes for about 20 minutes, until the potatoes begin to brown and the kofta is partially cooked. The potatoes will not be fully cooked at this stage.
⏱️ 20 minutes - 4
While the kofta and potatoes are roasting, prepare the tahini sauce. In a medium bowl, whisk together the tahini, yogurt, 2.5 cups of water, lemon juice, paprika, minced garlic, chili powder (if using), and black pepper. Whisk until smooth and creamy. Add more water, a tablespoon at a time, if needed to reach a pourable consistency.

Remove the baking sheet or casserole dish from the oven. If using a baking sheet, transfer the kofta and potatoes to a large cast iron skillet or casserole dish. Pour the tahini sauce evenly over the kofta and potatoes, ensuring everything is well-covered.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 6
Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 35-40 minutes, or until the kofta is fully cooked and the sauce has thickened slightly and is bubbling.
⏱️ 35-40 minutes - 7
While the dish is baking, toast the pine nuts in a small dry pan over medium-low heat until golden brown, if using.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 8
Once baked, remove the Kofta bil Tahini from the oven and let it rest for about 10-15 minutes before serving. Garnish with toasted pine nuts and chopped fresh parsley.
⏱️ 10-15 minutes
