Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g Ground beef
- 1 medium Onion
- 0.5 cup Parsley
- 1 tsp Ground cumin
- 0.5 tsp Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 tsp Ground allspice
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 2 Garlic cloves
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
Instructions
Finely chop the onion and parsley, and mince the garlic cloves.
In a large bowl, combine ground beef, chopped onion, chopped parsley, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground cinnamon, ground allspice, salt, and black pepper.
Mix the ingredients with your hands until well combined. The mixture should be evenly seasoned.
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each portion into a long patty around skewers or leave them as individual patties.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush the kafta patties with olive oil to prevent sticking.
Place the kafta on the grill and cook for 6-8 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and nicely charred.
Once cooked, remove the kafta from the grill and let them rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Serve the Keto Lebanese Kafta with a side of zucchini noodles, cauliflower rice, or a mixed green salad to keep the meal keto-friendly.
