Ingredients

• Ground beef - 300 grams
• Ground lamb - 100 grams
• Onion - 1 small, finely chopped
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Cilantro - 30 grams, chopped
• Parsley - 30 grams, chopped
• Cumin - 1 teaspoon
• Paprika - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Eggs - 2 large
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, ground lamb, chopped onion, minced garlic, cilantro, parsley, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until fully combined.
2. Divide the meat mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a flat patty.
3. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush with olive oil to prevent sticking.
4. Grill the kefta patties for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through and have nice grill marks.
5. While the kefta is cooking, heat a small non-stick skillet over medium heat and crack the eggs into the pan. Cook to your desired doneness (sunny-side up or over-easy).
6. Once the kefta is done, remove from the grill and place on a serving plate. Top each patty with a cooked egg.
7. Serve hot, garnished with additional chopped herbs if desired.
