Kebabs

Method

Kebabs

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lamb Mixture

    In a large bowl, combine the ground lamb, finely chopped pistachios, minced black garlic, chopped red onion, and chopped parsley.

  2. 2

    Season the Mixture

    Add cumin powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and olive oil to the lamb mixture. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

  3. 3

    Shape the Kebabs

    Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape each portion around the soaked skewers, pressing firmly to ensure they hold together.

  4. 4

    Cook the Kebabs

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the kebabs for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are cooked through and have a nice char.

Black Garlic Toum

  1. 5

    Prepare the Black Garlic

    In a food processor, add the peeled black garlic cloves and blend until smooth.

  2. 6

    Add Egg White and Lemon Juice

    Add the egg white and lemon juice to the food processor and blend until well combined.

  3. 7

    Emulsify the Mixture

    With the food processor running, slowly drizzle in the vegetable oil. Continue blending until the mixture is thick and creamy. Season with salt to taste.

  4. 8

    Serve

    Transfer the black garlic toum to a serving bowl and serve alongside the lamb kebabs.
