Beef koftas made with love and hints of ground coriander, cumin, paprika, all spice and seasoned with salt and pepper. Oh my word, you can whisk your family off on an imaginary trip to an exotic Greek Island at your dinner table.
Making beef koftas is so simple - and after watching the clever video clip I made for you, your kids will love helping you. The next day, beef koftas are delicious in lunchboxes and they can also be made in advance and frozen before grilling. I freeze the uncooked beef koftas on a baking tray and when they are frozen, I pack them in ziploc bags. It makes it easier for the children to take as many as they need to cook.
Koftas can be made with beef, lamb or pork. In countries such as Turkey, Greece, Israel, Pakistan and other Middle Eastern countries the traditional spices to associate with koftas are cumin, coriander, paprika and all spice. Koftas are meatballs, basically, just in a oblong shape and served on a stick as a popular street food.
