Lamb koftas with minted yoghurt

These little discs of sweetly spiced lamb make for the easiest of delicious dinners, pan-fried and drizzled with our garlicky minted yoghurt and wrapped in warm pita bread. Throw in some cucumber and tomato and there’s dinner on the run for kids; or serve with a pilaf and roast vegetable salads for a mini Middle Eastern feast. Leftovers? Hello, lunchboxes!   

To Serve

In our houses, the classic, quick kofta treatment is to wrap in warm pita bread with a well-seasoned chopped salad of cucumber, tomato, spring onion and parsley or coriander, dressed with lemon juice. The koftas, with the minted yogurt in a separate bowl for dunking, make a good, substantial hand-around snack too, or surround with other dips, olives and pita for a quick meze platter. Oh, and they can also be piled on a platter with an array of other Middle Eastern-leaning dishes, salads and sides like cous cous or a rice pilaf, as part of a larger feast. So many uses for these handy little koftas.

Some Prep

FRY PAN: fry koftas in a lightly oiled non-stick frying pan over medium heat for 2-3 minutes each side (from defrosted) to 4-5 minutes each side (from frozen) and until golden brown. OVEN: place koftas on a baking paper-lined tray and bake in a preheated 180C oven (FF) for 15-20 minutes (from defrosted) to 25-30 minutes (from frozen), or until golden brown and cooked through. TIP: if cooking the koftas from frozen, defrost the minted yoghurt by placing the sachet in a cup of warm water.

    Lamb koftas with minted yoghurt

    My wife and I are in our early to mid-eighties now and have been with Dinner Ladies for about 10 weeks. We are delighted to have found such delicious and tasty meals and this meal is very tasty indeed.

    We used our air frier to cook these and suggest not to over-do it as they can get a little dry, but the minted yoghurt is just the perfect compliment.

    Very easy and very tasty.

    Our favourite Dinner Ladies dish so far. I oven baked them as I don't have a non-stick frypan - worked well, just mopped up some juices mid-bake so they didn't get soggy. Served with wholemeal wrap and a tomato/cucumber/parsley salad. Yum!
