Lamb Kofta with Tomato Basil Hummus
Pan-seared lamb skewers seasoned with warm Mediterranean spices, served over a creamy tomato basil hummus with a crisp cucumber and red onion salad.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz ground lamb
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.5 tsp garlic powder
0.5 tsp ground cumin
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp olive oil
0.06 cup tomato basil hummus
0.5 cup cucumber
0.25 cup red onion
1 tsp lemon juice
PREPARATION
In a medium bowl, combine the ground lamb, sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, ground cumin, and dried oregano.
Mix the ingredients thoroughly with your hands until the spices are evenly distributed throughout the meat.
Shape the lamb mixture into four elongated, log-shaped koftas around small wooden skewers or simply as free-form logs.
Heat the olive oil in a cast-iron skillet or non-stick pan over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the koftas in the hot skillet and sear for 3 to 4 minutes per side until they are deeply browned and cooked through.
While the lamb is searing, toss the chopped cucumber and diced red onion with the lemon juice in a small bowl to create a quick relish.
Spread the tomato basil hummus in a thick layer across the base of a serving plate.
Arrange the warm lamb koftas on top of the hummus and finish the dish by garnishing with the fresh cucumber and onion salad.
