Turkish Kofte

Combine beef, onion, garlic, parsley, spices, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.

Mix gently until evenly blended, without overworking the meat.

Divide mixture into equal portions and shape into small log-shaped kofte.

Thread kofte onto skewers, pressing gently to secure.

Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high and lightly oil the surface.

Grill kofte 10–12 minutes, turning often, until browned on all sides.

Check for doneness and cook until no longer pink inside.

Rest 2 minutes, then remove from skewers.

Serve hot with pita, rice, or salad.
