👨🍳 步骤
- 1
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
💡 专业技巧: Ensure oven is fully preheated for even cooking. - 2
In a large bowl, combine ground lamb, chopped onion, parsley, minced garlic, allspice, cumin, 1.5 tsp salt, and 1 tsp black pepper. Mix well with your hands until all ingredients are evenly distributed. Do not overmix.
💡 专业技巧: Using your hands ensures spices are thoroughly incorporated. - 3
Shape the lamb mixture into small oval or ball shapes. Arrange them in a single layer in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Place the sliced potatoes in between and around the kofta.
💡 专业技巧: Try to make the kofta and potato slices roughly the same thickness for even cooking. - 4
Bake for 25 minutes, or until the kofta is browned and the potatoes are beginning to soften.

While the kofta and potatoes are baking, prepare the tahini sauce. In a medium bowl, whisk together tahini paste, lemon juice, 0.5 cup water, minced garlic, and 0.5 tsp salt until smooth. Add more water, a tablespoon at a time, if needed to reach a pourable consistency.
💡 专业技巧: The sauce will thicken as it bakes. - 6
Remove the baking dish from the oven. Pour the tahini sauce evenly over the kofta and potatoes, ensuring it gets into the crevices.
💡 专业技巧: Gently shake the dish to help the sauce distribute. - 7
Return the dish to the oven and bake for another 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the sauce is bubbly and slightly thickened.
💡 专业技巧: The sauce should be golden and slightly caramelized on top. - 8
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot with flatbread or rice.
💡 专业技巧: A sprinkle of sumac or pomegranate seeds can add extra flavor and visual appeal.
💡 专业技巧
- ✓For a richer flavor, you can marinate the kofta mixture for a few hours or overnight in the refrigerator.
- ✓If your lamb is particularly fatty, you can drain off some of the rendered fat before adding the tahini sauce.
- ✓Adjust the lemon juice in the tahini sauce to your preference for tanginess.
