Today, the weather is very nice, sunny with a little breeze, just the spring time before the venue of the summer. This is why I decided to make something quick and yummy for lunch today, to have time to enjoy going out on this lovely day. I thought grilled kafta with boiled potato salad and cherry tomato salad would be a perfect combination. In previous posts I cooked the kafta in the oven with potatoes and tomato sauce, and also with tahini. Today is a new way of making the kafta.
Ingredients:
- 500 grams kafta ( 500 grams minced beef mixed with a small onion finely chopped and 1 cup of chopped parsley and season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon seven spices)
- 1 tomato, sliced
- 1 teaspoon corn oil
- 1 kilo boiled potatoes
- 4 spring onion, sliced
- 1 red pepper, finely chopped
- 1 cup parsley, finely chopped
- a few cherry tomatoes
- 1 teaspoon salt
- juice of one lemon
- 1/2 cup virgin olive oil
Preparation:
- Preheat the oven to 180 C
- With a wet hand take a small ball of kafta meat and put it on a wooden skewer, when all the meat is finished place the skewers in a tray, put on the sides the slices of tomato, and teaspoon of corn oil in the tray
- Bake for about 25 minutes, turning the skewers half way
- To make the salad, cut the boiled potatoes in cubes, add the chopped parsley, sliced spring onions and the diced red pepper
- Season with salt, lemon juice and the olive oil and mix well
ET VOILA…C’EST TOUT… BON APPETIT 🙂

Yes You are right. Except the we say it Kafta in Lebanese not Kofta. 🙂

This looks like it could be lovely barbecue food, too – to make the very most of the sunshine!
