Instructions
- 1.In a large bowl, combine the lamb mince, half of the chopped onion, all the minced garlic, half the parsley, half the mint, cumin, coriander, and paprika. Season with salt and pepper. Mix well with your hands and form into 8 small, oval-shaped koftas.

- 5.Serve the warm lamb koftas immediately with the cucumber-tomato salad and a generous dollop of the herbed yogurt sauce.
