Method


  1. For the koftas, soak five wooden skewers in a bowl of water for ten minutes.

  2. Place all of the kofta ingredients except the oil into a food processor and blend together until smooth. Divide the mixture into five equal portions and shape the mixture onto the top half of the skewers.

  3. Heat the oil in a frying pan over a high heat. Fry the koftas on both sides for about 5-6 minutes until cooked through.

  4. For the herb salad, mix the parsley leaves with the oil and seasoning in a bowl.

  5. To serve, place the herb salad in the middle of a plate and arrange the koftas on top.
