Kabab Ingredients

Serving Ingredients

Method

Kabab Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Meat Mixture

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

  2. 2

    Form the Kababs

    Divide the mixture into equal portions (about 125 grams each) and shape them into long, oval cylinders around the skewers. Ensure the meat is packed tightly to prevent it from falling apart during grilling.

  3. 3

    Marinate the Kababs

    Drizzle olive oil over the formed kababs and let them marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator to enhance the flavor.

Cooking the Kababs

  1. 4

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If you are using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 30 minutes to prevent burning.

  2. 5

    Grill the Kababs

    Place the kababs on the grill and cook for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are browned and cooked through.

  3. 6

    Remove and Rest

    Once cooked, remove the kababs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.

Serving

  1. 7

    Assemble the Plate

    On a large serving plate, place the grilled kafta kababs. Serve with warm pita bread, a generous scoop of hummus, and tabbouleh salad on the side. Garnish with lemon wedges for added flavor.

  2. 8

    Enjoy

    Serve immediately while hot, and enjoy your delicious kafta kabab plate!
