Notes

I would recommend is making sure the meat is at room temperature before mixing it with spices. This will ensure even cooking. Also, be gentle when combining the ingredients. Over-mixing may cause the kaftas to become too dense. When it comes to spices, feel free to adjust to your liking. For an added depth of flavor, consider using fresh herbs.
