👨🍳 Инструкции
- 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground lamb, grated onion, minced garlic, cumin, coriander, cardamom, sumac, salt, black pepper, cinnamon, chili flakes (if using), and chopped parsley. Drizzle in 1 tbsp of olive oil and mix thoroughly with your hands until well combined. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

While the kofta mixture is chilling, prepare the tahini-yogurt sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together the plain yogurt, tahini, minced garlic, and lemon juice until smooth. Season with a pinch of salt to taste. Set aside.
- 3
Divide the kofta mixture into 4-6 equal portions. Shape each portion into a log or patty around skewers (if using). If not using skewers, ensure they are uniformly shaped for even cooking.

Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Lightly brush the grill grates or pan with olive oil to prevent sticking. Grill the kofta for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until a golden-brown crust forms and the internal temperature reaches 160°F (70°C).

Serve the grilled lamb kofta hot with pita bread or flatbread. Drizzle generously with the tahini-yogurt sauce and garnish with fresh herbs and sliced onions.
