1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

If the lamb is not properly mixed, the kofta will fall apart on the skewer.
4

Form the lamb into small patties about the size of a walnut.
5

Mold the patties tightly around a long skewer so they form small oval shapes.

Four or five will fit on a skewer.
