Shrimp Kofta (Shrimp Patties)
Kofta is typically made with various ground meats, but this pescatarian version makes for a hearty appetizer. These Shrimp Kofta are a simple, protein-packed solution and they come together quickly by combining ingredients into a food processor and mixing until a paste-like consistency is formed.
