The kofta spices, parsley and garlic make for a extremely flavorful burger. I did not make the dressing to go with, but will next time around; just did not have the ingredients on hand. I used a pound of ground chuck and adjusted the kofta to accommodate the lesser amount.
Ingredients for Dressing:
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup sesame tahini
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 3 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
Directions for Dressing:
In a small bowl combine the dressing ingredients. If the dressing is too thick, whisk in up to 3 tablespoons of water until your desired consistency is reached.
Ingredients for Kofta:
- 1 1/2 pound ground chuck
- 1/2 cup minced fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 2 teaspoons ground coriander
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground fresh pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
- 1/4 teaspoon turmeric
Directions for Kofta:
Combine the kofta ingredients in a large bowl. Shape into 6 patties of equal size and thickness and make an indentation about 1-inch wide in center of each patty. Brush patties with oil.
Grill the patties over direct high heat, with the lid closed until cooked to medium, 8-10 minutes, turning the patties once.
Serve the the dressing and slices of fresh tomato.
