Urfa kebab

 

 

1. Choose the right cut of meat: The key to a delicious Urfa kebab is using well-marbled, high-quality meat. Look for cuts like lamb leg or shoulder, which are flavorful and tender.

2. Marinate for flavor: The meat should be marinated for at least a few hours, or ideally overnight, to absorb the flavors of the marinade. A typical marinade includes ingredients like olive oil, garlic, onion, paprika, cumin, and Urfa pepper.

3. Skewer it right: When skewering the meat, make sure to thread the pieces tightly to ensure even cooking and maximize juiciness. Use skewers that can withstand heat and won't burn.

4. Cook over open flame: Traditional Urfa kebabs are cooked over a hot charcoal grill to get that smoky, charred flavor. The high heat helps to seal in the meat's juices and adds a delicious caramelized crust to the kebabs.

5. Serve with traditional accompaniments: Urfa kebab is often served with fresh pita bread, yogurt, pickles, and a side salad. These accompaniments help balance the richness of the kebabs and enhance the overall dining experience.
