🇪🇬 Egypt recipe
Kofta
Egyptian kofta is the art of the grilled meat skewer elevated to its most aromatic form. Ground beef or lamb is kneaded with grated onion, fragrant parsley, and a blend of warm spices until silky smooth, then molded onto flat metal skewers and grilled over blazing charcoal. The high heat creates a smoky, charred exterior while the interior stays tender and juicy.
