Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Rice

    Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a pot, add 2 cups of water for every cup of rice and bring to a boil. Once boiling, add the rice, reduce heat to low, cover, and let it cook for about 15-20 minutes or until all the water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Kebap Mixture

    In a large bowl, combine the ground lamb, chili powder, paprika, and salt. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.

  3. 3

    Shape the Kebaps

    Take a handful of the kebap mixture and mold it around skewers, shaping them into long sausage-like forms.

  4. 4

    Grill the Kebaps

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the kebaps for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and slightly charred.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Salad

    While the kebaps are grilling, prepare a simple green salad with your choice of greens, tomatoes, and cucumbers. Dress with olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to taste.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the grilled Adana Kebaps with warm lavash bread, a side of rice, and the fresh green salad. Optionally, add grilled green peppers as a garnish.
