Kebab Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Meat Mixture

    In a large bowl, combine the ground lamb and ground beef. Add the grated onion, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, cumin powder, salt, black pepper, and chopped parsley. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined.

  2. 2

    Shape the Kebabs

    Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape them around skewers, pressing firmly to ensure they hold their shape during cooking.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a charcoal grill, make sure the coals are hot and glowing.

  4. 4

    Cook the Kebabs

    Brush the kebabs with olive oil and place them on the grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until nicely charred and cooked through.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove the kebabs from the grill and let them rest for a couple of minutes. Serve with flatbreads or pita, garnished with sliced tomatoes, onions, and a sprinkle of sumac if desired.
