Grilled Lamb Kofte w/ Summer Vegetables & Beet Borani

If lamb is not your thing, a ground beef would be great too. I know some of you will ask about turkey or chicken and while it will work, it is much leaner. Try mixing in a dollop of Greek yogurt and drizzle of olive oil to the poultry to add a bit of moisture.

A note on the beets. I used the pre-steamed ones from the market and my sauce turned out a little brown. Next time, I will plan ahead to steam and peel the beet myself so I get that electric pink color.
