Kefta Kebabs

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the ground lamb, ground beef, chopped red onion, minced garlic, chopped parsley, ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well using your hands until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

  2. 2

    Shape the Kebabs

    Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape each portion into a long, oval kebab form around skewers.

  3. 3

    Chill the Kebabs

    Place the shaped kebabs on a plate and drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld and to firm up.

  4. 4

    Grill the Kebabs

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the kebabs for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until cooked through and slightly charred.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the kebabs hot with tzatziki sauce and additional lemon wedges on the side.
