This Beef Kofta Kebabs with Tzatziki is a must try recipe.
Growing up during a typical Midwest family, we didn’t really venture into much ethnic cooking aside from spaghetti and tacos. And I really wouldn’t call those two foods all that ethnic the way we cooked them.
I have to admit I was a pretty picky eater well into my 30’s. I wouldn’t think of eating chunky tomatoes in salsa, or trying things like cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice and fresh ginger in my beef.
I am so glad my tastes have changed because these beef and pork kofta kebab sandwiches are full of such a lot flavor. Typically I believe beef and lamb is combined to make this dish, but that’s the best part about cooking – adapting with what you have on hand. I had ground pork in my freezer in order that subbed for the bottom lamb nicely.
Feel free to pan fry these in a non-stick skillet with a bit of grape seed oil, but since you probably have the BBQ grill all set up by now (hello June!) these are going to be awesome on your grill
