Beef Kofta Kebabs
Ingredients:
2 lbs Ground Beef
1/2 Onion (finely minced)
4 Garlic Cloves (finely minced)
1 Bunch Of Mint (finely minced)
1 Bunch Of Parsley (finely minced)
1 Tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Ground Coriander
1 tsp Ground Ginger
1 tsp Cinnamon
1/2 tsp Nutmeg
2 tsp Allspice
1 tsp Cumin
2 tsp Paprika
1/2 tsp Cayenne
1/2 tsp Ground Green Cardamom
1 tsp Sumac (optional)
Salt and Black Pepper
Accoutrements:
Pita or Flat Bread
Sliced Onion
Sliced Cucumber
Sliced Tomato
Shredded Lettuce
Lemon Wedges
Tzatziki Sauce Ingredients :
1 Cup Yogurt
1/2 Cup Cucumber (grated)
1 Garlic Clove (minced)
1 Tbsp Mint (finely minced)
1-2 Tbsp Lemon Juice
1 Tbsp Olive Oil
Salt
Instructions:
In a large bowl combine all the tzatziki sauce ingredients and season with salt to taste. Place in the fridge until ready to serve.
In a large bowl combine the ground beef, all the dry spices, finely minced onion, garlic, mint, lemon juice, and parsley. Season with salt and pepper then mix until completely incorporated and slightly tacky.
Form a few ounces of the ground meat mixture into a oblong shape in your hand. Using a flat skewer, skewer the meat through the center and evenly spread the meat across the length of the skewer. (PRO-TIP: keep the meat cold, this will help the meat stick and stay on the skewer). Repeat with the rest of the kebabs. Place the kebabs on a sheet tray then place in the fridge to keep cold while you fire up the grill.
Next using a charcoal grill with a few wood chunks added for smoke, grill the kebabs suspended by a metal kebab holder (Check Amazon). Turn the kebobs every 30 seconds until cooked then remove from the grill. (You can also grill the kebabs directly on the grill just make sure the grill grate spacing is close together).
Serve the kofta with sliced tomatoes, red onion, cucumber, lemon wedges, lettuce, pita or flatbread, and the tzatziki sauce.
Enjoy!

Bro you deserve million views. Excellent recipe
Thanks bro
Could not find recipe, please help:)
Can anyone help how do I get the recipe
As an Egyptian, I approve this recipe😋 That's good brother. Tried to put more parsley next time, you want it to look more green. It will change the game. 👌
I’ll give that a try!
BROOOOO!!! THIS RECIPE WAS INCREDIBLE! I'm middle eastern, this is the best recipe, my family won't stop talking about these kebabs!!
Glad you liked it! I make it gluten free but it’s harder to keep on the skewer
@@MatthewAugustahow do I get this recipe?
As a fellow Egyptian, but my fellow brother, George W7405 said add more parsley. It will change the game and make it more small because in kofta it’s good to be small matter.
🙌🥂
Tried the recipe today and it smacks
Great to hear!
To help cook evenly, make thumb prints in the meat on the skewer to level out the koobideh. And baste it with butter for good crust
🥂
Since I was suggested your channel yesterday, March 18, 2023, I find you to be a top chef.
I gave your channel to a few people to watch.
Awesome, thank you! Appreciate that
As an armenian you put too much spices. The onion and cilantro was good along with salt pepper and red pepper. You can mix the beef meat with sheep meat to be nice and juicy
@@haroutkhatch104as a TH-cam follower of his channel like you, you can add as much or little of any ingredient that you desire🙄
Made this tonight and it was AMAZING!
Glad you liked it
Thanx
For love our orgin dish
This goes great with a garlic naan 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Oh yes!
I usually do this or mutton kebobs and garlic naan. 😩👌🏾
Damn that looks so good
Thank you!
As an American living in Egypt, I have to say, these are pretty legit! Love it!
Awesome! Thank you!
the cinnamon is KEY.
i’m persian, but i love arab cuisine!
Yes! 🙌🙌
Oh La La love your recipe idea Chief!
Thank you!
Any time Mr.
Chief🙂
And it’s more better to serve it on a huge plate filled with parsley and instead of the dipping sauce, you add tahini instead 😊😊
🙌🙌🙌
Oh i didn't know that English people also love these kebabs😍
I love them
@@MatthewAugusta great to hear this👌😍😎
Oh yes….❤
I’m Native American and these kabobs were so good! I filled a pita with meat, tomato, cucumber, and tzatziki sauce. Had a side of Lebanese rice. This is going on the monthly rotation!
I think humans love these kebabs
I'm a huge fan of your's ftdrom india
Btw where are you from? And do u think becoming a chef worth it? Cause I'm in my 18s now and looking for some good hotel management colleges in india!
I am in the USA. I say follow your passion! its worth it if you love it.
Don’t become a chef no money in it!! Get in the Network communications industry. You can cook as a hobby !!
Half lamb half beef is key
🥂
Omg this video has personality 😂 Not what I was expecting looking for kofta recipes but now I'm even more excited to make them
🤣🤣🙌 the Kofta is so good!
Ahh that's right the combination of Turkish kebabs and Greek tzatziki is perfect
Yes! 🙌🙌🙌
Looks great!!!

Hope you like it
Made this with ground lamb and made into patties and bbq'ed...came out wonderful
Yeah it’s easy to do as Pattie’s and the same exact flavor
I underseasoned, my skewers are in the mail and I used Italian dressing for sauce. This was still amazing!!
Definitely need to sub out that ground beef for lamb asap if you want it to be anything like the original. Good recipe though
❤️
Yes! These were soooo good! You did a great job!
Glad you like them!
Crazy I love finding new dudes who cook and eat like me on the toob get in
🤣🥂
Wow

Yum
Wow, great video. So delicious!
Thank you!!
Looks fantastic. Making these tomorrow!
Hope you enjoy
As a Turkish its look like delicious
🙌🙌
I like this recipe kofta kababs looking delicious
🙌🙌
As a syrian we make them like that sometimes but we mostly make it in the oven
🥂
If you grate the onion and drain the juice, based with butter during cooking, you'll understand why you did
Nice tip!
This recipe sounds amazing! I will make it tonight
Hope you like it!
Every time I see a Kabob I can't understand that it's from Iran or India or Arabs or...
(Because I'm Iranian and we have different types of Kabob here)
What kind do you make?
Wow amazing and yummy love it i try this thanks for idia
🙌🙌🙌
Looks good and plated very pretty.
Thank you. Appreciate that.
Yum...

@@MatthewAugusta my biggest dream is to meet you some day right now I'm a sous chef 👨🍳
U wanna make the juiciest, most yummy tasting beef or lamb kebabs? Make it with pork.
🥂
Tried this and it's bussing
Excellent recipe, flavours are beautiful ❤❤
Thank you so much 😊
Dang looking good kofta heck yeah
Thank you! 🥂
Love it
Only north Americans use the word
" addicting " . All other English speakers would say addictive. I'm not sure addicting is even a word. Always sounds so strange to me when I hear it.
The kebabs do look very delicious 😋
Thank you!
I tries to make these for the first time today i now know i need to chill the meat before assembling!😂😂😂❤❤ thanks wish i saw this earlier
You got this!
Never thought I'd be spellbound by a man eating mint leaves like that.. but okay, I accept my fate 🤣🤣 Let me watch again for the recipe
🤣❤️
@@MatthewAugusta 😍😍 omg what an honour from the man himself hahaha! Thank youuu! Stay minty! 🤣
I believe the white sauce is usually dill, and cucumber, maybe with lemon, and some spices.
Try it
This looks good, great work. But keep in mind, traditional kebab contains lamb.
It looks delicious❤❤❤
Thank you!
I make this a lot. I fry mine . I'm American I don't bother with how others say its not supposed to be same
🥂
Umm bro that looks fire
Thanks bro
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
As a Jordanian I approve of this looks fucking amazing that’s for sure 🤩
Thank you! 🥂
Looks delicious...may I ask where did you get that skewer holder? tysm
Check Amazon or my website
Most middle eastern folks don't use mint but use parsley..some use cilantro...but best to experiment and we dip it in tahini sauce
Sounds great!
In lebanon mint is widely used
@Helvetorment yes here in Dearborn Michigan all the Lebanese use it a lot
Being Indian, I think he cooks better Indian food than most Indians 🤣!
Woah, I'm honored 🤣
No bread crumbs and no eggs? Impressed that it holds so well and doesn’t crumble
Gotta make it cold
Chilling the meat and the skewers right before grilling helped hold the meat for me
Cinnamon makes it more Greek influenced.
looks so good great ingredients
Thank you so much
Step 1) always make sure you dont lose any of the onion water so it falls off
🥂
I need it
🥂
No, flipping every 30 seconds has nothing to do with cooking them evenly. The fat gets hot on one side and the meat slops into the grill. So you have to turn them regularly to keep the heat to the fat uniform. This allows the meat to stay on the skewers.
That’s right!
Amazing 😊
Thank you! Cheers!
Damn yum
🥂
holly molly, isnt that crazy that 80% of those ingridients like tomato come from north and south america?
🥂
Looks Great, but I wanna know what happened to your mother? Mine died the day after my birthday in December! And watching her on Hospice is So difficult to handle to end...and I wasn't ready for her end! 😢 still cry daily 😭🥲
❤️
Try it in kobideh kebab style ، it will melt your taste buds
Sounds good!
Amo los hombres que cocinan.... Anyway no me batean indeed

Is it me or does Matthew look a lot like Dutch from Red Dead Redemption?👀
The character was started by me
@@MatthewAugusta Gg fam, what a pro gamer move :D
Wait is it beef or pork bc I am Someone who is allergic to pork….don’t ask why
Beef or lamb or both
👍👍👍
🥂
Charcoal the only way to cook 😊

🥂
The first time I ever saw a kabob like this was when I was in Russia.
kurdish kebab next!
I’ll have to make some
@@MatthewAugusta thanks
i just subbed to ur channel
How much cumin to put on the Tzatziki sauce? You mentioned on the video but not on the written recipe. Also no mention of olive oil on the video but it’s on the recipe.
Thanks!
I’ll have to check it. You just put a few pinches
Those long flattened bar metals are the skewers??? Wow.
Yeah you can get them online
Where can I get the skewers and the rack you used? Also what kind of wood chunks did you use in the grill?
Yümmy yümmy emotionally addicted 🐑🔥🐑🔥🐑😍🥩😩
