Chargrilled over glowing charcoal embers with an authentic smoky char, served with handcrafted accompaniments and savoury reductions.
Knead the lamb with onion, garlic, tomato paste, cumin, half the Aleppo pepper, and salt.
Press the meat around flat skewers; skewer the aubergine rounds separately.
Grill over hot charcoal, turning, until the kofta is charred and cooked through.
Brush the aubergine with oil while grilling so it stays moist and takes smoke.
Slide off the skewers, scatter with parsley and remaining Aleppo pepper, and serve with rice pilaf.
