Greek Style Lamb Koftas with Minty Cucumber Dip

by:




A healthy varied diet has always been important to me, however now it is even more so as I am pregnant with my second baby. I think my diet can sometimes be quite carb heavy as we all love pasta in our house, so I am trying to add more meat and fish so I have plenty of protein and omega 3s as well. Tonight I decided on this lamb kofta dish - I remember cooking it one summer about 5 years ago as we put the koftas on the barbecue but we hadn't chilled them beforehand and they completely fell apart! I wasn't going to make the same mistake this time round. These only take about 25 minutes to prepare and cook but I also left them to chill in the fridge for 3 hours.
