Set an oven to about 400 degrees F. Prepare a foil-lined baking sheet or dish, drizzle with oil, and set aside.

Slice the tomatoes and onions, and add them to the prepared pan to roast with the beef later.

In a large bowl, combine the meat with the herbs and spices. Knead by hand for a minute, or until the ingredients are fully combined.

Shape the kefta into small logs, like sausages without a casing. Thread them through skewers, if desired, and place them on the prepared baking sheet or dish. Bake for about 20 minutes or until browned and cooked through.

You can serve the finished kefta with a simple tomato salad: 4-5 Tomatoes diced, 4-5 cucumbers diced, parsley minced, 1/4-1/2 red onion diced, salt and pepper to taste, and a drizzle (about 1 tbs of olive oil and lemon juice)
