Grilled Lamb Kofta Kebabs with Tabbouleh Salad

How To Make Grilled Lamb Kofta Kebabs, 2 Ways - Break out of your food routine and heat up your barbecue menu with a little help from these grilled lamb koftas. In what basically shakes out to be a Middle Eastern style burger without the bun, these juicy kabobs are made with a ton of fresh herbs and a dash of spice, before being threaded on a skewer and grilled.

Serve it as I did here with an unbelievably fresh-tasting tabbouleh salad and you’ve got a pretty stunning summer meal. While I’m aware my variation on this salad may get tabbouleh enthusi-asts furling their brow, the addition of torn grilled pitas and crunchy baked chickpeas is beyond worth venturing off the path. I fact, you just may never go back.

You can also use the same lamb mixture and shape it into mini patties for a take on the ultimate summer favourite — the almighty slider. Smear on a spoonful of hummus, some thinly sliced cucumber and stack it for an open-faced version, or open them up and stuff them, pocket style.
