Recipe for Lamb Kofta

Recipe for Lamb Kofta

As summer starts to creep into the Greek Islands, thoughts automatically turn the Barbecue. Kofta (or 'keftedes') are a traditional Greek dish which are served all year round - similar in taste to a spicy meatball or a homemade burger ... perfect over a charcoal grill!

A firm favourite with adults and children alike, tasty, filling and not expensive to make.
