Cooking Steps

1
  • Boil plenty of water in a pot or saucepan and cook the rice for 8 - 11 minutes or until done. Drain and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, finely chop half of the onion and slice the other half.
  • In a bowl, combine the onion rings with the sumac and the red wine vinegar. Season with a pinch of salt and set aside.
2
  • Crush or mince the garlic.
  • In a bowl, combine the chicken mince, garlic, diced onion and Middle Eastern spice mix. Season with salt and pepper. Shape the meat into two oval balls per person.
  • Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a frying pan over medium–high heat and fry the kofta for 2 - 5 minutes until evenly browned.
  • Cover with the lid and continue cooking for another 5 – 8 minutes, or until the meat is cooked through.
3
  • Cut the cucumber into crescents and halve the cherry tomatoes. Transfer to a bowl and add the honey and 0.5 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil per person. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Chop the fresh herbs. 
  • In a small bowl, combine the fresh herbs with the rest of the extra virgin olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Chop the almonds.
4
  • Serve the rice in deep bowls.
  • Top with the cucumber-tomato salad, sumac onions, kofta and labne.
  • Drizzle on the herb oil and garnish with the salted almonds.

Did you know... cherry tomatoes contain more beta-carotene than regular tomatoes. This is an antioxidant that helps protect the body against tissue damage and aging.
