Notes

There is no need to make two different lunches when serving this delicious kofta plate – everyone will want a taste, not believing it’s a diet lunch. Just double or triple the recipe so everyone gets their own! Shape the patties ahead of time; cover and store in the fridge. Any spare lamb mince can be frozen. You could also use light hummus instead of baba ghanoush.
