Kofta - (Lambless)

Kofta - (Lambless)

We’ve arrived at “K”  in our Vegetarian Alphabet for fun gig. So Koftas seemed like fun. This is a totally made up recipe, but all recipes were made up by somebody at one time or another.

Ingredients:-

100g of Mung Beans
100g of Brown Lentils
Gram Flour
Dried Parsley
1 medium Onion, finely chopped
Ground Coriander
Cumin
Chilli powder
Garam Masala
2 cloves of Garlic, grated
Dried Ginger
Salt & Pepper
Oil to grill
1 tsp of Bicarbonate of Soda

Method:-

(1) Soak the Mung Beans and Lentils overnight
(2) Drain and rinse and boil with the Bicarbonate of Soda for 20 minutes.
(3) Drain again and set aside to cool.
(4) Mix the Gram Flour, Parsley, Onion, Coriander, Cumin, Chilli powder, Garam Masala, Garlic, Dried Ginger and Salt & Pepper in a large bowl.
(5) When the Beans and Lentils have drained and cooled pulse them a couple of times in a blender. You are looking for something slightly lumpy. Not a mush!
(6) Mix everything together and add Gram Flour if required so that you have a consistency which you can form around a skewer.
(7) Form around skewers to make your Koftas about an inch (2.5cm) think.
(8) Grill or Griddle turning regularly until your Koftas browned on all sides and heated through.

We served ours on a bed of boiled Rice with a Yogurt, Mint and Cucumber dip, Plum and Ginger Chutney, plus Coleslaw.

Burger Pie

Did somebody mention Burger and Bean Pie? Natalie Chambers???? Nah - More like Bacon and Cheese burger Pie. Now you’re talking…

Just for fun…..

Ingredients:-

1kg Insanity, crushed into nutter sized globules
300g Beef mince (Discount isle green stuff at £1.38 in our case!)
250g Mature Cheddar, grated . (Make sure to grate a good lump of thumb as well)
Bacon
1 Terrapin
1 Satsuma
Chilli flakes
Garlic Salt
1 Grandmothers earring
A small brass bell
and a partridge in a pear tree
Gluten free puff Pastry

Method:-

(1) Place the Terrapin on the Satsuma, ring the small brass bell 7 times and sit with your eyes closed cross legged for 45 years.
(2) You’ve got really old and the mince went off a little over 44 years ago.
(3) Have a wash and shave.
(4) Start again – but without the Terrapin, Satsuma and blasted bell.
(5) Fry the bacon with the  Terrapin and set aside to drain.
(6) Mix the mince, Garlic Salt and Chilli flakes in a large bowl.
(7) Form into a large round burger sort of thing.
(8) Cut in half and stuff half of your grated cheese in the middle.
(9) Have a break, get drunk and fall asleep.
(10) Fry the burger on both sides.
(71) Have a pint of White Lightening.
(11) Boil the  Satsuma.
(12) Allow the burger to cool.
(13) Throw the  Satsuma away, is dead and they are really not good boiled.
(14) Get serious, I mean, really?
(15) Roll the pastry out.
(16) Place the Burger in the middle.
(17) Porn Grandmothers earring.
(18) Place the fried Bacon over the top.
(19) Cover with the remaining cheese.
(20) Wrap the pastry over everything, oil and sprinkle with wuzzed up Unicorn ( We found toasted Pumpkins seeds are a good alternative)
(21) Place in a preheated oven at 180c for 45 minutes.

We served ours with Chilli wedges, coleslaw and a bit of salad. No Satsumas, Unicorns or Terrapins were actually harmed in the creation of this dish…..
