Spicy Lamb and Feta Koftas with a lemon and mint Greek Salad

Its Friday night and the food has been delivered. I fancied doing something a bit different tonight so I made Spicy Lamb and Feta Koftas with a lemon and mint salad. I also made some child friendly ones with Eryn too. I called them 'meat lollipops' and she loved it. I guess anything you can dip in tomato ketchup is a winner! She had fun making them though.

To make the Koftas:-

Ingredients

- 500g Organic minced lamb
- 1 Red Onion
- 1 Tbsp Harissa Paste (yes Im using a lot of this at the moment in recipes!)
- 60g Feta
- Fresh Mint - finely chopped
- Parsley
- Salt / Pepper to taste

Method

- Put the minced lamb in a bowl, add the finely chopped red onion, Crumbled feta cheese, chopped mint (a sprinkle), parsley, season if you want to add.
- Mix tougher with your hands until combined
- If you are making some for the kids then take a little out and keep aside.
- For the adults - add the Harissa paste and mix together
- Form into sausage shapes
- When ready to cook, put under the grill for approx 10 mins until cooked through. Difficult to say exact time as it depends on how thick you make the meat. Turn when under the grill regularly.



Greek Salad

- Diced Cucumber
- Chopped cherry tomatoes
- Feta Cheese
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- Freshly squeezed lemon juice - (quarter of a lemon)
- Cooked rice
- Fresh mint

-Mix everything together - serve. I layered mine with rice on the bottom and the salad on top.

Enjoy xx
