Vegetarian Kofte

As a family we aim to have 1-2 vegetarian nights a week. Just to give our body a rest from processing all that meat and chicken.

So tonight i made slow cooked pumpkin soup and vegetarian kofte. Here is the recipe:

2 Cups of red lentil

1 Cup of Bulgur (cracked wheat)

3 Tablespoons of tomato paste

2 Onions finely diced

Bunch of chopped parsley

Salt

Lemon



Boil the lentils in water thats just covers them.




Once all water has evaporated and the lentils are really soft, you add the bulgur and cover the lid and wait about 10 mins




In a fry pan lightly fry the onions in oil till soft.




Add the onions, tomato paste, the lentils and bulgur, the chopped parsely and salt into a bowl and mix very well.




Warning! Unlike EarthyMamma did wait till the mixture cools down a little before you plunge your hands into the bowl (ouch!)




Then shape them into kofte shapes as pictured and enjoy with a squeeze of lemon. 

Enjoy!
