The mix of köfte herbs in this recipe is the
same mix that is used to season Turkish
meatballs.
You can buy it at the shop or you can make
it yourself with paprika, ground coriander
seeds, cayenne pepper, cumin, fennel
seeds, thyme, garlic powder and ground
black pepper.
stuffed peppers
with minced lamb
and feta
First, fry the minced lamb to loose grains. Then
mix it with köfte spices.
Mix the seasoned minced meat with lightly
browned onion and garlic brunoise, toasted
pine nuts, grated feta cheese, chopped parsley,
soaked sultanas, tomato puree, pepper and
salt. Leave to simmer for 15 minutes until all
the flavours are well mixed.
Cut off the caps of the peppers, remove the
stalks but do not throw away the crowns.
Remove the seeds. Fill the empty peppers with
the prepared minced meat and cover with a
thick layer of grated Gruyère.
Put the crowns back on top of the peppers and
put them in a preheated oven at 185°C for 25
minutes on 'hot air'. Then a couple of minutes
under the oven grill and that's it!
Serve with Greek pasta and a passata sauce
seasoned with cumin and red balsamic vinegar.
