Notes about this recipe

Very good. Thank you for the recommendation of adding 'something else' from the other notes, I added half teaspoon of paprika. I think this helped as the yoghurt sauce is so strong. Used 3 garlic cloves in the sauce, which I think was sufficient. In my opinion this is not a meal for 4 or 5, more like 3 or 4 at a push with other things. It only made 9 and 2 two each for 4 of us, with one to fight over didn't work for my greedy lot. Served with chilli halloumi and red pepper hummus as well the salad additions. Altogether a tasty meal, I'll just use more meat next time! Fair to say the vampires didn't stand a chance - if you love garlic you'll like this meal. We had a lot of sauce leftover so I might reduce next time.

Nice basic and easy kofta recipe. I divided the meat among 5 skewers and did them on the grill. Really liked the yogurt sauce for this!

I felt like there was a bit of a gap in the seasoning - it needed a bit more allspice or a little cinnamon or something. But very simple to prepare and very delicious. And garlicky.
