Equipment
- Meat grinder
- bowl
- Skewers
- Foil
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground lamb
- ½ onion, chopped
- 3 slices bacon, chopped, uncooked
- ½ tsp salt, or to taste
- ½ tsp black pepper, or to taste
- 1 small handful cilantro, chopped
- 1 pinch cumin, optional
Instructions
- Prepare your ingredients by chopping a small handful of cilantro, ½ an onion, and 3 slices of bacon into very small pieces.
- In a bowl mix together 1 pound of ground lamb and the chopped cilantro, onion, and bacon.
- Add 1/2 teaspoon of sea salt, 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, and a pinch of cumin (optional).
- This next step is very important. Keep mixing the meat mix for 5 minutes by hand, shape it into a ball, and start throwing it into a dish or cutting board, doing so 5-7 times. This will start a chemical reaction that will keep your kebab attached to skewers and prevent it from falling apart. ( If doubling the recipe, double the amount of times you mix and throw).
- Refrigerate meat for 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 350F.
- Take meat out of the refrigerator, divide it into four parts, and put on the skewers.
- Lay the skewers on a baking sheet and cover with foil for 35 minutes. (You can also grill instead of baking the lulya kebab.)
- Take the foil off and broil for another 5 minutes. Enjoy!
