- 1 kilo well-fatty ground meat
- 1 1/2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon red pepper paste
- 1 large onion, finely ground
- 1/2 teaspoon finely ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon finely ground cumin

Method
Follow the cooking sequence without leaving the page.
- In a bowl, add the fatty meat along with the rest of the ingredients and mix well, then add the ice and mix again until you have a sticky mixture.
- Shape the kofta mixture into balls or fairly large patties.
- In a frying pan over the heat, add a little oil or butter. When it is hot, add the kofta patties and wait a little until they cook on the first side, then turn them to the other side.
- In a small bowl, mix the pomegranate molasses with the water and cornstarch.
- When the kofta is cooked, pour the pomegranate molasses mixture over it and stir quickly so the sauce coats it and the flavors blend. Add the salt.
- Serve the pan-fried kofta to eat with bread and any vegetables you like.
