Instructions

1. 1

   In a large bowl, finely chop 500 grams of seitan and combine it with 1/2 finely diced yellow onion and 4 cloves of minced garlic.

2. 2

   Add 1/4 cup of chopped fresh parsley, 1.5 teaspoons of ground cumin, 1 teaspoon of ground coriander, 1/2 teaspoon of allspice, and 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika to the seitan mixture.

3. 3

   Pour in 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice, then season with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, mixing thoroughly until well combined.

4. 4

   Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each into an elongated kofta, pressing firmly around tandoor-safe skewers if desired.

5. 5

   Preheat your tandoor to approximately 230 degrees Celsius (450 degrees Fahrenheit) and carefully place the seitan kofta directly on the tandoor walls or hang the skewers inside.

6. 6

   Bake the seitan kofta for 10-12 minutes, turning once halfway through, until deeply golden brown and slightly charred in spots.

7. 7

   Serve the tandoor-baked seitan kofta immediately with your favorite Egyptian accompaniments, such as tahini sauce or pickled vegetables.
