Lamb koftas are a delicous staple of Turkish and Middle Eastern cuisine. They are great barbecued or as part of a larger mezze meal. Not too tricky to make either, but endlessly adaptable, here’s how you can make delicious lamb koftas at home.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound of ground lamb
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste)
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint

  • Wooden skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes

Instructions

  2. Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape each portion into a cylindrical kofta around the soaked wooden skewers. Make sure the koftas are firmly packed so they hold their shape during cooking.
  3. Preheat your grill or barbecue to medium-high heat. Brush the lamb koftas with olive oil to prevent sticking.
  4. Grill the koftas for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are cooked through and nicely browned on all sides. Ensure the internal temperature reaches 160Β°F (71Β°C).

Indian dishes are so tasty that we all keep going back to Indian restaurants. You don’t have to spend too much money now that you can make lamb biryani at home. This recipe is meant for 4 servings and is perfect for a Sunday lunch.

DUM MAST MAST! LETS TALK BIRYANI! Sipping away on my Yorkshire loose leaf tea, this morning I thoroughly enjoyed listening to my most favourite Qawalli singer, the legendary Nasrat Farah Ali Khan. In fact when the track 'dum mast qalander' came on I was yearning to cook a one pot rice dish of dum biryani! Not sure how I linked the two but I did! Originating from Persia; a fragrant rice dish brought to #India by the Mughal Empire. And oh do I love that period! There are so many varieties of biryani mastered by #Muslims across the globe from: Hyderabadi biryani, dum biryani, Sindhi biryani, an Afghani dumpakt biryani and more! All made with so many different kinds of flavours from lamb to mutton, chicken to beef and off course the classic Bengali fish biryani as well as the vegetable biryani. We really are all spoilt for choice! Today I attempted to make my own biryani using my own spices. I normally love the Laziza and Shan packets. As well as so many special ingredients, what makes biryani special to me is tender mutton meat, lots of green chillis and lots of fried onions in ghee to garnish. And the fragrant that leaves the kitchen smelling blissful is second to none…! After the passing of yesterday's red sun and dusty red sky, today we are left with a stunning sunshine glorifying London in all its beauty. This weather sure called for biryani today at the Hungry Hijabi HQ. A legendary singer and a legendary biryani πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’— – – – – – 🍚🍚🍚🍚🍚🍚🍚🍚🍚🍚🍚🍚🍚🍚🍚🍚🍚 #hungryhijabi #biryani #desifood #indianfood #dumbiryani #lambbiryani #streetfood #homecooking #foodphotography #picoftheday #vscofood #onepot #rice #hyderabadibiryani #instafood #dinner #chickenbiryani #muttonbiryani #foodstagram #foodporn #foodblogger #food #spicy #pakistanifood #delhifood #deliciousfood #f52one #feedfeed ❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀

Ingredients

The ingredient list includes:
1 pound boneless lamb
2 cloves minced garlic
1 3/4 teaspoons salt
1/2 cup plain yogurt
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
1/8 teaspoon cayenne
3 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 onion
5 cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
2 3/4 cups water
1 cinnamon stick
1/3 cup raisins
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup chopped cashews
1 1/2 cups basmati rice

Instructions:

Before you start, cut the lamb and onion into small pieces.

Start cooking the lamb biryani by mixing the cayenne, black pepper, garlic, yogurt, cumin, 1/2 teaspoon salt in a bowl. You can add the lamb and mix again.

Cook the onions with butter for 3 minutes. When they become soft and light brown include the turmeric, rice, cardamom, cinnamon, cloves and 1 1/4 teaspoons salt. Cook them for 1 minute while also mixing.

Then, pour the bowl with lamb in the pan together with the raisins and water. Wait for the lamb biryani to start simmering.

Once it does, cover it and cook for 20 minutes. Place it on the side, wait for 5 minutes and add the cashews.

  3. Rub it over both sides of the chops and let it marinate for 1 hour in the fridge up to 24 hours.
  4. Heat up a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat, and melt 2 tablespoons of butter and 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
  5. Before you put the chops in, season on each side generously. You don’t want to do this too early on or the salt will draw out all the moisture.
  6. Cook each of the chops for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the inside reaches 145 F, which is medium rare.
  7. While the chops are cooking, baste them, or pour over, the melted butter and olive oil to get them super flavorful all over.

DUM MAST MAST! LETS TALK BIRYANI! Sipping away on my Yorkshire loose leaf tea, this morning I thoroughly enjoyed listening to my most favourite Qawalli singer, the legendary Nasrat Farah Ali Khan. In fact when the track 'dum mast qalander' came on I was yearning to cook a one pot rice dish of dum biryani! Not sure how I linked the two but I did! Originating from Persia; a fragrant rice dish brought to #India by the Mughal Empire. And oh do I love that period! There are so many varieties of biryani mastered by #Muslims across the globe from: Hyderabadi biryani, dum biryani, Sindhi biryani, an Afghani dumpakt biryani and more! All made with so many different kinds of flavours from lamb to mutton, chicken to beef and off course the classic Bengali fish biryani as well as the vegetable biryani. We really are all spoilt for choice! Today I attempted to make my own biryani using my own spices. I normally love the Laziza and Shan packets. As well as so many special ingredients, what makes biryani special to me is tender mutton meat, lots of green chillis and lots of fried onions in ghee to garnish. And the fragrant that leaves the kitchen smelling blissful is second to none…! After the passing of yesterday's red sun and dusty red sky, today we are left with a stunning sunshine glorifying London in all its beauty. This weather sure called for biryani today at the Hungry Hijabi HQ. A legendary singer and a legendary biryani πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’— – – – – – 🍚🍚🍚🍚🍚🍚🍚🍚🍚🍚🍚🍚🍚🍚🍚🍚🍚 #hungryhijabi #biryani #desifood #indianfood #dumbiryani #lambbiryani #streetfood #homecooking #foodphotography #picoftheday #vscofood #onepot #rice #hyderabadibiryani #instafood #dinner #chickenbiryani #muttonbiryani #foodstagram #foodporn #foodblogger #food #spicy #pakistanifood #delhifood #deliciousfood #f52one #feedfeed ❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀

Lamb chops are usually something that people don’t cook at home, but in reality, they’re super easy and quick to make!

The longest part of the process it marinading them but after that, they’re on the table in 10 minutes. This recipe works for 8 chops that are 1 inch in thickness, perfect for an impromptu dinner party!

Recipe

  1. Start by marinading the lamb chops to increase the flavor.
  2. Mix together 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 6 cloves of crushed garlic, 1 tablespoon each of oregano, rosemary, mint, and parsley, and then half a teaspoon of black pepper.
  3. Rub it over both sides of the chops and let it marinate for 1 hour in the fridge up to 24 hours.
  4. Heat up a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat, and melt 2 tablespoons of butter and 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
  5. Before you put the chops in, season on each side generously. You don’t want to do this too early on or the salt will draw out all the moisture.
  6. Cook each of the chops for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the inside reaches 145 F, which is medium rare.
  7. While the chops are cooking, baste them, or pour over, the melted butter and olive oil to get them super flavorful all over.
  8. Serve and enjoy!
