This is one of my husband's favorite dishes. Kafta is ground beef that is mixed with onions and parsley. It can be made in different variations, grilled , served with tahini sauce , or cooked with tomatoes and potatoes.....
Ingredients:
For Kafta:
1 1/2 lb finely ground beef ( minced)
1 medium onion roughly chopped
1/2 cup chopped parsley ( washed and dried)
1/2 tbs all spice
salt and black pepper to taste
In food processor , pulse onions and parsley , few times make sure not to let them get watery.
In a bowl mix beef,salt, pepper,allspice , onions and parsley until well combined.
Tahini Sauce:
Mix, 1/2 cup Tahini paste, Juice of 1/2 big lemon ( about 2 tbs lemon juice) , 1/2 cup water, 1/4 tsp salt, 1/8 tsp black pepper and 2 minced garlic cloves and set aside.
Form the Kafta Into patties.
In a skillet over medium heat, heat 1/3 cup of vegetable oil and cook patties that were dredged in four for about 5 mins on each side or until browned.
