Baked Kofta with Eggs
Ben O'DonoghueIngredients:
Serves 4
- Red onion 1 large, grated
- Ground coriander 1 heaped tsp
- Flat-leaf parsley chopped to make 2 tbsp
- Minced lamb 500g
- Olive oil
- Chopped tomatoes 2 x 400g tins
- Eggs 4 (optional)
- Coriander a handful of leaves to serve
Spice Paste
- Garlic 1 clove
- Sea salt
- Coriander stalks from a large bunch, chopped
- Red onion 1/2, grated
- Ground cumin 1 tsp
- Saffron 2 pinches
- Lemon 1, zested
Method:
- To make the paste, bash the garlic to a purée in a pestle and mortar with a big pinch of sea salt.
- Add the rest of the ingredients and work together until you have a paste. Alternatively, just whizz it all together in a food processor.
- Put the onion, ground coriander, flat-leaf parsley and lamb in a bowl.
- Season, mix and roll into 12 meatballs. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a tagine or wide shallow pan (with a lid) and brown the meatballs all over, then scoop them out.
- Add the paste to the tagine or pan and fry for a few minutes until aromatic.
- Put the meatballs back in the pot with the tomatoes and simmer for 30 minutes with the lid on.
- Crack the eggs on top, if using, and cover for the last 5 minutes of cooking. Scatter over coriander and serve with couscous.
