Ingredients
- 500 grams ground beef
- 1 medium onion
- 3 garlic cloves
- 0.5 cup fresh parsley
- 0.5 cup fresh cilantro
- 2 teaspoons ground cumin
- 2 teaspoons ground coriander
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 12 wooden skewers
Directions
Step 1
Soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during cooking.
Step 2
Finely chop the onion, garlic, parsley, and cilantro.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, chopped onion, minced garlic, parsley, cilantro, ground cumin, coriander, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, sea salt, and black pepper.
Step 4
Using your hands, mix the ingredients until well combined. Be careful not to over-mix as this can make the kofta tough.
Step 5
Divide the mixture into 12 equal portions and shape each portion into a sausage-like form around each skewer.
Step 6
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Step 7
Cook the kofta skewers in the pan, turning occasionally, until they are browned and cooked through, about 12-15 minutes.
Step 8
Remove the kofta from the heat and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Step 9
Serve the Paleo Beef Kofta warm, paired with a fresh salad or roasted vegetables.
