In Albania, Qofte can look very different from restaurant to restaurant. Sometimes they are grilled, others they are fried and sometimes they come baked, with tomato sauce. Even the shape varies, more rounded at times or more cylindrical others.
Unlike in other countries in the Middle East, Albanian Qofte is not served on a flatbread but usually with vegetables or salad. Yogurt with cucumber and fennel may also accompany.
