Delicious Kafta

To every uqiyya of meat add one small potato, a beaten egg, a small onion, a little parsley, salt, pepper, and allspice, and a spoonful of flour or crushed rusk.

Grind the meat, potato, onion, and parsley fine in the meat grinder, then add the allspice and the rest of the ingredients and mix them well. Then form them into round or oblong patties, and finally fry them in ghee.

Serve the kafta with cooked peas, or with peas and carrots, or with beans; place the peas in the middle of the dish with the kafta in a ring around them.
