About Kafta
Kafta is a flavorful Middle Eastern dish made from ground beef, lamb, or chicken, blended with fresh parsley, onion, and a mix of aromatic spices like cumin, coriander, and sumac. Commonly grilled, baked, or pan-fried, kafta is a cornerstone of dishes in Lebanese, Syrian, and other neighboring cuisines, often served alongside rice, salads, or wrapped in flatbread. Rich in protein, kafta can be a satisfying meal option, providing essential nutrients like iron and B vitamins. However, its healthfulness largely depends on preparation methods and fat content. When made with lean cuts of meat and grilled, kafta can be a relatively wholesome choice. Traditional accompaniments, such as fresh vegetables and yogurt-based dips, also add vitamins and probiotics to the meal. To keep kafta healthier, opt for lighter ingredients and avoid frying.
