Spicy Lamb Kofta with Greek Yoghurt Dip

Ingredients:

For the Lamb Kofta:

  • 500 grams lean minced lamb (high in protein, low in carbs)
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • Salt to taste
  • Handful of fresh coriander, finely chopped
  • Zest of one lemon

For the Greek Yoghurt Dip:

  • 200 grams low-fat Greek yoghurt (high in protein, low in carbs)
  • Juice of one lemon
  • Salt to taste
  • Handful of mint leaves, finely chopped

Instructions:

  1. Combine all the ingredients for the lamb kofta in a bowl. Mix thoroughly until evenly combined. Form the mixture into small, oval-shaped koftas.
  2. Grill the lamb koftas on medium heat for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until cooked to your liking.
  3. While the koftas are grilling, prepare the Greek yoghurt dip. Combine Greek yoghurt, lemon juice, and salt in a bowl. Stir in the chopped mint leaves.
  4. Once the koftas are ready, serve them with the Greek yoghurt dip on the side.

Plating:

On a clean white plate, arrange 3-4 lamb koftas in a half-moon layout. Place a small dish of Greek yoghurt dip on the opposite side of the plate. Garnish the koftas with a sprinkle of fresh chopped coriander and grated lemon zest. The plate should express a contrast of brown grilled koftas against the white of the Greek yoghurt dip, punctuated with spots of green coriander and pale yellow lemon zest.
