Method

Beat the egg and pluck the bread into small pieces and add to the meat as well. Next mix in the the spices as you like. Then chop the parsley and garlic and add to the mix. Last, drizzle a dash of olive oil over the meat.

Now, mix everything well together using your hands. To form the köfte moisten the palms of your hands with water, roll a handful of the meat mix into a ball and gently squeeze them.

Now place the meat patties on the BBQ and slowly grill until they are cooked through. This should take about 5-7 minutes on each side.

Happy cooking & Bon appétit.

”It was my fascination for hunting dogs that got me into hunting. I started out participating as a beater and after few times I was obsessed about getting to know more about nature, wildlife and the hunting community. Three years back I passed my hunting license test and since then hunting has turned into a lifestyle. In January 2020 I finish my University degree with a specialization in hunting tourism and marketing. I’m very passionate and dedicated to explain my view on hunting, and to tell the whole story. As a hunter you won’t always bring home meat for your freezer, but I guarantee you that you’ll always bring home one more unique experience from the great outdoors.”
