Method

Step 1 of 5

To make the kofte, put all the ingredients into a large bowl, season well, and mix together using your hands until completely combined. Wash your hands, leaving them a little damp, and form 12 equal-sized patties from the kofte mixture. Place them on a baking tray lined with greaseproof paper, cover them with cling film, and chill for at least 30 minutes.

Step 2 of 5

To make the citrus yoghurt, blend all the ingredients together, season well, and chill until needed.

Step 3 of 5

To make the salad, whisk the olive oil, yoghurt, lemon juice, and honey together in a salad bowl. Season well. Just before serving, toss through the prepared herbs, rocket leaves, sliced onion, and most of the pomegranate seeds.

Step 4 of 5

To cook the kofte, heat a little olive oil in a cast-iron frying pan or rigid cast-iron grill pan over a medium-high heat. Cook for 4–5minutes on each side, until the kofte are well browned and springy to the touch.

Step 5 of 5

To serve, spread a little citrus yoghurt over one side of each plate and place three kofte on top. Put the dressed salad on the other side of the plate, and scatter with a few extra pomegranate seeds. Serve immediately.
