Instructions
- For the tzatziki, mix together the yogurt, sour cream, grated cucumber, white vinegar, chopped dill, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and white pepper in a bowl. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Preheat the grill to 400 degrees.
- In a bowl, add the ground beef, minced garlic, grated onion, chopped parsley, cumin, oregano, coriander, cayenne, garlic salt, pepper, and allspice.

- Serve with tzatziki, and enjoy!
Recipe Notes
Our wine choice is the 2003 Summit Lake Vineyards Zinfandel. A well-bodied red, with hints of smoke and spice, a perfect choice to stand up to this delicious beef kofta.
