Main Ingredients
- 1 lb ground lamb
- 0.5 cup finely chopped onion
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp ground coriander
- 0.5 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
In a large bowl, combine ground lamb, onion, garlic, cumin, coriander, parsley, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each into a small oval or cylinder, about 3 inches long.
Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Place the kofta in a single layer in the basket, ensuring they don't touch.
Air fry for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the kofta are golden brown and cooked through to an internal temperature of 160°F.
Let rest for 2-3 minutes before serving with your favorite sides or in a pita.
