Kofta pocket with tzatziki sauce from Food52

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Don’t forget the parsley next time. The kofta need the brightness. 1 tsp of salt for the kofta is plenty. Adding some pannade give the kofta a good texture.

    We felt that the salt (used kosher) could be halved, at least, for both the lamb and tzatziki. Otherwise, delicious! I made meatballs with lamb and with beef. The difference is slight enough that my family of five will be content with beef for budget's sake. My kids don't like plain yogurt and the tang, so I used "natural" sour cream and less salt than indicated, still quite salty. The spices and pine nuts were wonderful.

    I used a different recipe for the lamb kefta, but followed this recipe for tzatziki. It was very good.
