Bring the water t a boil, reduce the heat and simmer, covered, for 10 minutes. Carefully place the kefta i the liquid, cover, and poach the kefta for about 15 minutes, rolling them in the liquid from time to time so they are cooked wlel on all sides. Pour over the lemon juice, season the liquid with salt and tuck the lemon segments around the kefta. Poach for a further 10 minutes.Sprinkle with the remaining cilantro and mint. Serve Hot.
