These koftas are handy parcels of explosive flavour, with tender lamb, Mediterranean seasoning and a punchy harissa yoghurt to drizzle over the top. Paired with a veggie-studded couscous, this is a Persian-style feast to remember.

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Cooking Steps

Roast the veggies
1

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. 
• Roughly chop capsicum. 
• Cut pumpkin into bite-sized chunks.
• Place capsicum and pumpkin on a lined oven tray.
• Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to 
coat. Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.  


TIP: Peel the pumpkin if you prefer and scrape out the 
seeds, if necessary!

Prep the koftas
2

• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine lamb mince, 
Mediterranean seasoning, fine breadcrumbs, the 
egg and a pinch of salt and pepper.
• Using damp hands, roll lamb mixture into koftas 
about 8cm long and 2.5cm thick (3 per person). 

Bake the koftas
3

• Transfer koftas to a baking dish.
• Drizzle with olive oil and turn to coat. Bake until browned, 15 -20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut haloumi into 2cm chunks.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. 
• Cook haloumi until golden brown, 2-4 minutes each side. Transfer to a plate. 

Make the couscous
4

• When the koftas have 10 minutes remaining, boil 
the kettle.
• In a medium heatproof bowl, add couscous and a 
generous pinch of salt.
• Add the boiling water (see ingredients) and stir to 
combine. Immediately cover with plate and leave for 
5 minutes.
• Fluff up with a fork and set aside.

Bring it all together
5

• In a small bowl, combine harissa paste and  
Greek-style yoghurt.
• To the couscous, add roasted veggies, baby 
spinach leaves and a drizzle of white wine vinegar 
and olive oil. Toss to combine. Season to taste with 
salt and pepper. 

FInish & serve
6

• Divide roast veggie couscous between bowls. 
• Top with spiced lamb koftas, haloumi and harissa yoghurt  
to serve. Enjoy!
