Cooking Steps
1
- Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
- Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
- In a large bowl, combine the mince, half the garlic, Middle Eastern spice, breadcrumbs, 2 tbsp water (per 2P) and ¼ tsp salt (per 2P).
- Season with pepper and mix together by hand.
- Roll into evenly-sized balls, then shape into small sausage shapes to make koftas, 3-4 per person. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw mince.
2
- Pop the koftas onto a lined baking tray.
- When the oven is hot, bake on the top shelf until browned on the outside and cooked through, 12-15 mins. IMPORTANT: Koftas are cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
- Once cooked, remove from the oven and cover to keep warm.
3
- Pour 600ml water (per 2P) into a pot, stir in the stock and bring to the boil.
- Stir in the pearled couscous, bring back up to the boil and simmer, covered, 12-15 mins.
- Drain in a sieve and pop back in the pot. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover with a lid and leave to the side until ready to serve.
TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.
4
- Trim the cucumber and quarter lengthways. Thinly slice widthways.
- Chop the tomato into 2cm chunks.
- Roughly chop the olives.
5
- Mix together the cucumber, yoghurt and remaining garlic in a bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Add the olives and tomato to the couscous and toss to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
6
- Divide the couscous between bowls.
- Top with Middle Eastern lamb koftas.
- Add a dollop of cooling cucumber on top.
