A kofta by any other name is just a meatball. Although they’re usually more oval-shaped. These South Sudanese kofta are spiced with cumin, coriander and cinnamon then the sauce gets a kick from a Serrano pepper. Serve these with plenty of bread (like the pitas we used) to sop up all that spicy sauce.
