Ingredients
- 500 g lamb lamb mince, ground
- 1 teaspoon coriander seeds ground
- 1 teaspoon cumin ground
- 1 tablespoon rosemary leaves or scant ¼ teaspoon dried, fresh, finely chopped
- ½ cup breadcrumbs fresh
- 1 eggplant about 300g
- 1 garlic crushed/minced, small clove
- 3 Greek yoghurt I use low fat
- 1 tablespoon tahini sesame seed paste
- lemon about 2 tblsp, juice of 1
- salt to taste
- 200 g tomatoes quartered lengthways to serve, mini
- ¼ Spanish onion finely chopped to serve
- ⅓ cup mint leaf chopped to serve, fresh
- 2-3 cups leafy greens I used rocket/arugula & baby spinach to serve
- ⅓ cup pine nuts to serve (see notes, toasted
- 4-8 flatbread to serve (see notes for recipe
- 8 wooden skewers or bamboo skewers
Instructions
- Pre heat oven to 180c.
- Remove stem from eggplant and halve lengthways.
- Using a sharp knife cut a deep criss-cross pattern into cut side of eggplant - making sure not to cut all the way through.
- Place eggplant cut side up on an oven tray lined with baking/parchment paper, roast for 40 mins and let cool.
- Meanwhile add together ground lamb/lamb mince, ground coriander, ground cumin & rosemary, mix well with your hands to combine.
- Shape into 8 even sized balls, then roll into a long sausage shape, flatten slightly & wrap around wooded skewers, enclosing long edge well (see notes).
- Heat a non-stick pan (or barbecue) and cook kebabs on medium-high heat for about 10 mins - turning to browns all sides - or until cooked through.
- Using a melon baller or teaspoon, remove the flesh from the eggplant and add to a food processor, along with garlic, yoghurt, tahini, and lemon juice - process until smooth & add salt to taste & set aside.
- For salsa, combine mini tomatoes, Spanish onion & mint.
- Take one pita/flatbread, top with eggplant yoghurt, 1 or 2 lamb koftas, salsa, leafy greens & sprinkle with pine nuts and serve immediately.
Notes
- *Please note that the amount of calories per serve is provided as a guide only, as ingredients and cooking methods can vary greatly*
- This is the soft flatbread recipe I use to wrap these kebabs. I have allowed for two kebab skewers per person/serve. It's up to you if you would like to serve them both in the one wrap or divide them between two wraps.
- Whenever I toast pine nuts I never use oil - I don't think it's needed. There is enough oil in them naturally and they dry-fry wonderfully.
- If you are cooking the koftas on a barbecue, soak your bamboo skewers in water for an hour - this will help stop them burning. Also if you are frying them in a pan and are having trouble fitting the skewers in (me) just get a set of kitchen scissors and trim the bamboo skewers - to make it look presentable I would trim them all to the same length.
- When shaping the lamb around the skewers - make sure to enclose the long edge well or it may come open during cooking - not the end of the world (still tastes just as good!).
