500 kg lamb mince
½ cup Lupin Flakes
50 ml chicken or vegetable stock
60 ml pomegranate molasses (can substitute with coconut nectar)
¼ red onion, finely chopped

½ preserved lemon rind, finely diced (can substitute with 1 tsp lemon zest)
Salt & pepper to taste
Method
- Mix Lupin Flakes, pomegranate molasses and stock together and let sit for at least 15 minutes.
- Combine onion, garlic and chilli in a large bowl. Add the lupin mix, lamb, cumin, paprika, preserved lemon and herbs, mix thoroughly and season to taste with salt and pepper. Rest for at least one hour to allow flavours to develop.
- When the mixture has rested, form into Kofte shape and sauté until just cooked.
