One of our favorite foods from Morocco is kofta – who can resist minced lamb and onion packed onto a skewer and cooked on a charcoal grill? This recipe puts a brunch twist on this lamb dish, swapping out skewers for patties and English muffins! The lamb brings so much flavour to the recipe and it’s a fun take on traditional eggs benedict. The Harissa, cumin, and paprika spices bring the flavours of Morocco and the onions keep the meat extra moist.
Ingredients
500g Quality Mark lamb mince
1/2 onion
finely choppeda handful of flat-leaf parsley
choppeda small handful of mint leaves
chopped4 garlic cloves
finely chopped1 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp paprika
4 poached eggsi
2 English muffins
cut in half4 Tbsp harissa paste
1 cup, well-packed baby spinach
4 Tbsp hollandaise sauce
A pinch of paprika
Method
Mix all lamb pattie ingredients together in a large bowl.
Divide mixture into 4-5 patties (depending how big you want the patties to be) and roll into a ball then push out flat to form a pattie.
The patties should be a similar size to the English muffins.
Heat a pan to medium-high heat, add a dash of oil and cook patties on both sides, approx 4-5 minutes per side.
Whilst the patties are cooking poach 4 eggs.
Break each egg into a separate pouring dish for easy pouring into the boiling water.
Add a dash of white vinegar to the pot of boiling water and create a whirlpool with a spoon before dropping your egg into the water.
Allow eggs to drain of any water on a napkin or chopping board before serving.
Toast muffins and spread with a layer of harissa. Top with ¼ cup of baby spinach, Moroccan pattie and a poached egg. Drizzle with hollandaise and dust with paprika.
