Instructions
1. Prepare the koftes
Preheat your oven to 180 C. Line a baking tray with parchment. Mix the lamb and beef mince with Baharat Kofte Seasoning, sweet pepper paste, olive oil and parsley. Knead well so the seasoning blends through the meat. Shape into small, thick patties. Place on the tray.
2. Bake
Bake for about 25 minutes.
Flip halfway so both sides brown evenly.
3. Cook the chips
Heat oil in a deep pan or fryer.
Fry the potatoes until golden.
Drain and season with salt.
4. Make the salad
Combine all salad ingredients in a large bowl.
Toss well.
Add dressing and salt.
5. Serve
Plate the koftes with chips and salad.
Add chilli sauce or yoghurt sauce if you like.
Enjoy the deep, warm flavour of Baharat Kofte Seasoning.
