Yield Makes 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

For sauce
1 cup plain yogurt (preferably whole-milk)
1 teaspoon minced garlic
For köfte
2 slices firm white sandwich bread, torn into pieces
1 lb ground lamb
1 small red onion, minced or grated
1/3 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon baharat spice mix*
1 1/2 teaspoons Maras pepper flakes*
1 1/2 teaspoons Urfa pepper flakes*
2 teaspoons salt
Accompaniment: 16 soft lettuce leaves for wrapping (optional)
*Available by mail order from Formaggio Kitchen (888-212-3224).
Special Equipment
16 (10-inch) wooden skewers

Steps:

  • Make sauce:
  • Stir yogurt with garlic and salt to taste.
  • Make köfte:
  • Cover bread with water in a bowl and soak 30 minutes, then squeeze bread to remove as much moisture as possible.
  • Prepare grill while bread soaks.
  • Transfer squeezed bread to a large bowl and add remaining köfte ingredients, then mix well with your hands until thoroughly blended. Divide lamb mixture into 16 portions and form each into a ball. Roll each ball into a 7- to 8-inch-long "cigar," rolling first between your hands and then on a work surface (be sure the köfte are thin enough for even cooking). Slide a skewer lengthwise through center of each köfte.
  • Grill on oiled grill rack, turning over once, until golden and just cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes. Serve warm with yogurt sauce.

This recipe is a waste of time. The lamb kofte were bland and the garlic yogurt sauce was too runny.

I followed the recipe exactly and the lamb kofte turned out terrible. They were dry and overcooked. I would not recommend this recipe.

The lamb kofte were a bit dry, but the garlic yogurt sauce helped to make them more moist. Overall, the dish was good, but I think I would try a different recipe next time.

I had some trouble getting the lamb kofte to hold together, but once I got the hang of it, they turned out great. The garlic yogurt sauce was also very good.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's because I used a hotter pepper than the recipe called for. Other than that, the lamb kofte were very good and the garlic yogurt sauce was delicious.

I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of lamb, but I'm so glad I did! The lamb kofte were surprisingly delicious and the garlic yogurt sauce was the perfect complement.

I've made this recipe several times and it always turns out great. The lamb kofte are always tender and juicy, and the garlic yogurt sauce is the perfect balance of tangy and creamy.
