Method

Step 1

Soak the wooden skewers in water while preparing the koftas.

Step 2

Mix all the kofta ingredients together, divide the mixture into 6, and roll into sausage shapes. Thread on skewers and refrigerate for 15 minutes.

Step 3

Grill for 10-12 minutes turning regularly, check they are cooked through.

Step 4

Mix all the salad ingredients together, divide between 6 plates, then top each with a kofta.

Recipe tips

As well as soaking before use, cover the bamboo skewers with foil to stop them burning under the grill.
Any lean mince could be used for the koftas - beef, lamb or pork all work well.
Great wrapped in a roti with salad and some mango chutney.
Freezing instructions: Freeze koftas individually, wrapped in greaseproof paper. Defrost in the fridge or microwave and grill until piping hot.
