Zutaten

• 250g ground lamb
• 100g coarse bulgur wheat
• 1 small onion, finely grated
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 30g fresh parsley, chopped
• 15g fresh mint, chopped
• 2 tbsp tahini
• 1 lemon
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp ground cumin
• 1/2 tsp ground coriander
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Anleitung

1. 1.To cook the bulgur, combine 100g of bulgur with 200ml of boiling water or vegetable broth in a bowl. Cover and let it stand for 15-20 minutes until the liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork.
2. 2.In a separate bowl, combine the ground lamb, grated onion, half the minced garlic, chopped parsley, mint, cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper. Mix well with your hands until just combined.
3. 3.Form the lamb mixture into 6-8 small oval-shaped koftas. Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Cook the koftas for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through.
4. 4.While the koftas are cooking, prepare the sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together the tahini, the juice of one lemon, the remaining minced garlic, and 2-3 tablespoons of water until you have a smooth, pourable consistency. Season with a pinch of salt.
5. 5.To serve, stir the remaining chopped herbs into the fluffed bulgur. Divide the herbed bulgur between two plates, top with the lamb koftas, and generously drizzle with the lemon-tahini sauce.
