Iron is the commonest nutritional deficiency in young children. It’s important for growth and development and crucial in the production of healthy red blood cells, which carry oxygen around the body including the brain. A deficiency in iron will lead to your child being tired, unable to concentrate properly and more prone to infection. The best source of iron is red meat so try these lamb koftas, they are good with or without the pitta bread and will make a delicious family meal. |
Ingredients1 small red onion, finely chopped You will also need 8 wooden skewers, soaked in warm water for 30 minutes 7 pitta bread pockets Method:Sauté one of the onions in the oil for around 5 to 6 minutes. Add the garlic and cumin, and cook for an extra minute, then transfer together. Then mix together the sautéed onion, raw onion, minced lamb and all the remaining ingredients. Transfer to a food processor and chop for few seconds. Form the mixture into 14 koftas (rissole shapes), roll in flour and sauté until golden and cooked through. Pre-heat the broiler. Broil the koftas for 8 to 10 minutes, turing halfway, until cooked through. Let cool slightly before serving, and remove from the skewers for smaller children. Cut the pitta pockets in half. Spoon a little yoghurt into the pockets and stuff each one with a lamb kofta, slice of cucumber and tomato.
