Kebab Skewers

👨‍🍳 Method

For the Meatball mix

1. 1
   Mix the ground meat with the onion, garlic, parsley, cumin, paprika, olive oil, salt and black pepper until evenly combined.
2. 2
   Knead the mixture 3–4 minutes, until smooth and sticky.

   💡Kneading binds the meat, and chilling firms it a little: that way the kebab stays on the skewer and doesn't fall apart over the fire.
3. 3
   Chill the mixture 30 minutes.

   💡Don't press the meat or flip it more than once: the juices run out and the meat dries out. It releases from the grate once the underside is browned.
