  1. In a medium sized bowl combine the Lamb Mince, finely diced Onion, Parsley, Man Grind & the Morocckin Paste. Wet some skewers & squeeze the mince mixture onto the skewers. Set aside in the fridge to chill (this will help hold the mixture together on the skewer).

Orzo Salad

  1. Cook the Orzo in boiling water for 10mins, drain, cover in cold water, drain again & into a large bowl.

  2. Pan fry the Red Onion (sliced lengthways), Courgette & Pepper until golden & add to the Orzo. Also add the Cherry Tomatoes cut in half, Olives, crumbled Feta & finely diced Mint. Stir all the ingredients & set aside.

Yoghurt Dressing

  1. Combine the Yoghurt, Aioli, Lemon Juice & Man Grind altogether.

  2. Serve the Lamb Kofta with a generous few spoonfuls of the Orzo salad & drizzling of the Yoghurt dressing.
