Turkish Kebabs

Post by PizzaCharlie »

Anyone have a good recipe for these late nighter, heart attack causing Turkish Kebabs?

I've tried the Takeaway Secret book kebab recipe. It is somewhat close but there is something missing that I can't put my finger on.

Seeing as there is a kebab shop at almost every street corner someone might have or know a friend with that Turkish Kebab recipe that works.

Do you want ground lamb or cubed ?
Do you have Sumac spice?

Nice Chris, Here is a recipe I put together that I'm about to try on some boned out and cubed Hogget shoulder.

1 1/2 cups buttermilk
1 Red Capsicum
4 Cloves Garlic
1 Small Brown Onion
2 Tbs fresh mint
1 Tbs Fresh Parsley
1 Tbs Sumac Powder
1. Tsp Cumin Powder
1. Tsp Coriander powder
1/2 Tsp Salt
1/2 Tsp Tumeric
1/2 Tsp ground black pepper
1/4 Tsp ground cloves

Blend everything up and marinate 24-36 hours.
Grill on skewers and serve as doner Kababs with tabouli and chilli sauce

I guess I got the terminology wrong. I was thinking more along the lines of Doner Kebab like in the pic.

But funnily enough my next request was going to be the cubed skewer kind. So I'm happy to try out the recipes.

Try this

I would mix the meat more to get the proteins worked up and make it more like a sausage less crumbly
also add some white pepper,allspice and sumac if you have it.
