Turkey Kebabs With Urfa Pepper Food

URFA KEBAB

Steps:

• Combine lamb ground beef and tail fat cubes by using mezzaluna knife. It will take around 30 minutes to combine lamb meat and tail fat well together.
• Combine mezzaluna cut red carmen pepper, red sweet pepper flakes and salt with the mix and use mezzaluna knife again to combine all them well. It will take additional 10 minutes to combine all the mix well.
• Put the kebab meat on to the skewers. (You can use water to prevent the kebab meat to stick on your hand.)
• Place the skewers on a charcoal grill and cook around 15 minutes. While grilling, don't forget to flip the each side of the Kebab continuously to keep the tail fat's and ingredients' juice stay in the meat.

TURKEY KEBABS WITH URFA PEPPER

Steps:

• Combine couscous or bulgur wheat with 1/3 cup boiling water in a bowl and wait for grains to soften, 10 minutes for couscous, 15 to 20 for bulgur. Spread on plate to cool.
• Add ground turkey, garlic, 2 teaspoons chili flakes, scallions, cilantro, cumin, curry powder, 2 tablespoons of olive oil and salt. Mix well then knead until smooth. Wet hands and form into 12 patties.
• Heat remaining oil in a large pan until just smoking. Add patties so that there is enough space between them so they can be turned with a spatula.
• Cook until crisp and lightly browned on each side, about 12 minutes total.
• Arrange romaine around edge of a platter. Put patties in center and garnish with mint and lemon wedges. Sprinkle with more chili flakes, to taste. To eat, wrap a leaf of romaine around a bit of kebab, a leaf or two of mint, and a sprinkle of chili flakes and a squirt of lemon.
