About Kofta skewers
Kofta skewers are a flavorful dish with origins in Middle Eastern, Mediterranean, and South Asian cuisines. Traditionally made from ground beef, lamb, or a combination of both, the meat is mixed with herbs, spices, onions, garlic, and sometimes breadcrumbs to create a fragrant, protein-packed meal. Shaped into elongated ovals or cylinders and grilled on skewers, they have a smoky, charred exterior and a tender interior. Kofta skewers are rich in protein and a good source of iron and B vitamins. When served with fresh vegetables, whole-grain flatbreads, or a light yogurt sauce, they offer a balanced meal. However, depending on the cut of meat used and any added fats, they can be high in saturated fat, so lean meats are a healthier choice. Grilling also minimizes added oils, making them a nutritious option for a flavorful, globally inspired meal.
