Kofta

Kofta (see section Name for other names) is a type of meatball or meatloaf, and is a popular dish in Afghan, Azerbaijani, Arab, Armenian, Balkan, Bangladeshi, Indian, Palestinian, Iranian, Jordanian, Kurdish, Moroccan, Pakistani, Romanian, Lebanese, and Turkish cuisine. In the simplest form, koftas consist of balls of minced or ground meat—usually beef, pork or lamb—mixed with spices and/or onions. In India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Turkey, Azerbaijan, Iran, koftas are usually made from lamb, beef, mutton or chicken, whereas Greek and Cypriot varieties, as well as other variations from the Balkans, are usually made from pork, beef or veal, or a mixture of the three.
In India, vegetarian varieties include koftas made from potato, calabash, paneer or banana. Koftas in India are usually served cooked in a spicy curry/gravy and are eaten with boiled rice or a variety of Indian breads. In Iran, Iraq and Azerbaijan, koftas are served with a spiced gravy, as dry variations are considered to be kebabs. Shrimp and fish koftas are found in South India, West Bengal, some parts of the Persian Gulf, and parts of Egypt.
==Variations==
The meat is often mixed with other ingredients, such as rice, bulgur, vegetables, or eggs to form a smooth paste. They can be grilled, fried, steamed, poached, baked or marinated, and may be served with a rich spicy sauce. Koftas are sometimes made from fish or vegetables rather than red meat, especially in India; deep-fried kofta made from shrimp is known in Egypt. Variations occur in North Africa, the Mediterranean, the Balkans, and India. According to a 2005 study done by a private food company, there were 291 different kinds of kofta in Turkey.
〔(Inegol Koftesi )〕 In the Arab world, kufta is usually shaped into cigar-shaped cylinders.
Early recipes (included in some of the earliest known Arabic cookbooks) generally concern seasoned lamb rolled into orange-sized balls, and glazed with egg yolk and sometimes saffron. This method was taken to the West and is referred to as "gilding" or "endoring". Many regional variations exist, notable among them include the unusually large Azerbaijani (Iranian) ''Tabriz kuftesi'', having an average diameter of 20 cm, (8 in).〔Oxford Companion to Food, ''s.v.'' kofta〕 and despite its association with Iran.
In Central Asia, kofta is cooked with liberal amounts of tail fat.〔Jill Tilsley-Benham, ""Sheep with Two Tails: Sheep's Tail-Fat as Cooking Medium in the Middle East", In: Oxford Symposium on Food & Cookery, 1986: The Cooking Medium, (p. 48 )〕
Koftas were introduced in South Asia following the Turkic conquests in the region, particularly by the Mughals. Koftas in Indian, Bangladeshi and Pakistani cuisine are normally cooked in a spiced gravy, or curry, and sometimes simmered with hard-boiled eggs. Kofta dishes are very popular with immigrants from the South Asia to the United Kingdom, and are widely available from many Pakistani and Indian restaurants. Vegetarian koftas are eaten by a large population in India. The British dish Scotch egg may have been inspired by the Mughlai dish Nargisi kofta ("Narcissus kofta"〔(Hinkhoj.com: Meaning of "Nargisis" in Urdu ) Retrieved 2013-01-28〕), where hard-boiled eggs are encased in a layer of spicy kofta meat.〔Oxford Companion to Food, ''s.v.'' ''kofta'' and ''Scotch egg''〕 In Bengal, a region of eastern India, koftas are made from prawns, fish, green bananas, cabbage or meat, such as minced goat meat. In Kashmir, mutton is often used in the preparation of koftas, as opposed to beef or lamb.
In Lebanon, kafta is usually prepared by mixing the ground beef with onion, parsley, allspice, black pepper and salt.〔http://shahiya.com/english/recipes/basic-kafta-975〕
In Morocco, kufta may be prepared in a tagine.
In Pakistan, kofta is made from ground beef with onion, spices and salt. Nargisi kofta with hard boiled egg encased in spicy kofta are also popular.
In Greece and Cyprus, kofta is usually fried and eaten with tzatziki or yogurt.
In Albania and other Balkan countries, kofta is usually made from pork, beef or veal, or a mixture of the three. They are usually served with ''meze'' or ''tarator''. They are very popular all around Albania and there are many small shops called ''Qofteri'', which offer ''qofte'' and serve beer.
In Romania, there is a local variety of kofta, known as ''chiftele'' or ''chiftea''. Chiftele is the Romanian version of Turkish ''köfte''. They are usually made from minced pork, mixed with mashed potatoes and spices, then deep-fried. They are served with pilaf or mashed potatoes.
