​Lamb and Rice Koftas with Tahini Sauce
Tahini Yogurt Sauce: 
1/2 cup plain Greek or Balkan-style yogurt 125 mL
3 tbsp tahini 45 mL
1 1/2 tbsp lemon juice 22 mL
1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil 15 mL
2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley or dill 30 ml
​Pinch each salt and cayenne pepper Pinch
Lamb Koftas: 
1/2 cup shelled pistachio nuts or cashews 125 ml
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley 60 mL
2 green onions, chopped 2
1 egg 1
1 clove garlic, chopped 1
1 tsp each dried mint, ground coriander and paprika 5 ml
1/2 tsp salt 2 mL
1/4 tsp each cinnamon and freshly ground pepper 1 ml
1 cup cooked and cooled U.S. white or brown rice 250 ml
1 lb ground lamb 500 g
2 pieces naan bread, halved 2
1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion 60 ml
12 cherry tomatoes, halved 12
4 radishes, thinly sliced 4

Tahini Yogurt Sauce:
​In small bowl, mix together yogurt, tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, half of the parsley, the salt and cayenne. Stir in 3 tbsp (45 mL) water, or enough to make a thick yet pourable consistency; set aside.
Lamb Koftas: In food processor, purée pistachios, parsley, green onions, 3 tbsp (45 mL) water, egg, garlic, mint, coriander, paprika, salt, cinnamon and pepper until smooth, stopping to scrape down sides. Transfer to bowl; stir in rice until combined. Add lamb, mixing well.
Divide into 8 portions; form each into elongated egg shape. Thread 1 kofta onto each of 8 metal or soaked wooden skewers. Grill skewers, covered, on greased grill or in greased grill pan (if in grill pan, omit skewers) over medium heat, turning twice to create 3 sides, until no longer pink inside, 10 to 12 minutes.
Grill naan bread until warmed through, about 30 seconds; transfer to plates, along with two skewers each. Scatter red onion, tomatoes, radishes and remaining parsley on top. Serve with Tahini yogurt sauce drizzled overtop.

Makes: 4 servings
