In the Middle East and Asia, kofta can refer to any minced meat dish, whether it's a patty, meatball, or meatball, depending on the region. Only a unique combination of aromatic oriental spices will transform your patties into a true kofta. Combine ground beef with soaked bread, which will hold the whole thing together, and a spice blend including paprika, cinnamon, mint, cumin, and fiery cayenne pepper. Finely chopped walnuts and fresh, fragrant herbs perfectly complement the flavor and aroma. Grill the kofta and serve with a delicious, juicy salad of sweet cantaloupe, red onion, and dill, dressed with lemon juice.
