We South Africans kind of go gaga over biltong if you haven’t noticed…

Check out my Biltong and Blue Cheese Salad with Candied Pecans, I did for them a few weeks ago.

This time around they supplied me with the great quality minced beef.  I was just tired of cooking it up and serving it with pasta and loads of cheese – because, really, what else do you do with mince?

Beef Koftas with Zucchini Yogurt Dressing is a simple and easy recipe, which gives this great versatile ingredient an absolute “taste lift”, get it?

Beef Koftas with Zucchini Yogurt Dressing

Originally from Middle Eastern Cuisine, Koftas are actually just a spicy meatball served with just as spicy gravy.  I decided to serve my Koftas with a delicious tangy Zucchini Yogurt Dressing, not only adding a fresh element to the dish but keeping it completely low carb.
