Ingredients
For the koftas
- 500 g lean pork mince
- 1 tsp fennel seeds
- 1 tsp chilli flakes
- 2 cloves garlic
- handful fresh coriander
- handful fresh parsley
- Salt and pepper
Instructions
- Place the fennel seeds in a pan and toast until they become fragrant. Add to a pestle and mortar and crush.
- Chop the coriander and parsley, and crush the garlic clove.
- Add the pork mince, fennel seeds, coriander, parsley, chilli flakes, crushed garlic, salt and pepper to a large mixing bowl and mix well with your hands.
- Shape the pork into six koftas (like big fat thumbs) around skewers and then use one of the following cooking methods:
To cook on the BBQ:
- When you’re ready, fire up the BBQ and grill them on each side until cooked through. You want them to be lovely and brown on the outsides.
To cook in the air fryer:
- Spray the air fryer basket with a little oil, then lay the pork koftas in one layer with space between them. Air fry at 220C for 12-15 minutes until cooked through.
To cook in the oven:
- Preheat the oven to 200C / Fan 180C / Gas Mark 6. Lay the koftas on a baking tray and bake for 15-20 minutes until cooked through.
