Kebab Kofta Recipe

Step 1

Cut the meat into medium size pieces and grind them with a meat grinder. You can grind them twice to have a smoother texture. It is recommended to use a combination of 85% lean meat and 15 % fat.

Step 2

Peel and wash the onion and grate it with a fine grater. Then drain the grated onion juice and add it to the ground meat.

Step 3

Wash the mint and parsley and chop them finely on your work surface. Add the chopped herbs, sumac, ground coriander seed, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper to the meat mixture and knead it with your hands for 10 minutes until it becomes sticky and cohesive. This will prevent the kebabs from falling apart while cooking.

Kabab Tabei Recipe | The best Persian Pan Kebab

Kabab tabei is one of the most popular home kebabs in Iran. This dish combines minced beef or lamb, tomatoes, onion, and garlic cloves.

Step 4

Then cover the meat with a plastic film and put it in the refrigerator for half an hour to one hour to rest.

Step 5

Take about the size of a tangerine of the meat mixture or roughly 100 grams, and knead them with your hand to form a ball. Now attach the meatball to a wooden or steel skewer. Spread the meat on the skewer and gently press it until it has about one centimeter thickness all over the skewer.

Step 6

Light the charcoal of your barbeque and place the kebab Kofta skewers parallel to each other on the heat. Then turn them every minute to cook them properly. This quick turning will help the meat stick to the skewer and prevent it from falling off it. If you want to make your kebab Kofta on the barbeque and with wooden skewers, you should put them in water so they get wet and do not burn while cooking.
