Kafta is a Middle Eastern type hamburger mixture. When it is baked and topped with saucy potatoes it becomes an everyday homestyle Arabic meatloaf. The one hit or miss with this recipe is the potatoes; sometimes they just won't become tender. Not to take any chances when company is coming, I preboil them before adding them to the kafta.
