Kebabcheta/Kebapcheta Sausages

[Tenpoint5]

Feeling rather generous this morning. Not to mention I have the recipe out and mixed up a batch for tomorrows dinner.

Kebabcheta/Kebapcheta

This recipe is great for a summer barbeque. The cumin emits an unmistakable and delicious aroma on the grill that is sure to summon your friends for a taste. Remember to prepare at least a day ahead, so the cumin can flavor the meat.

3lbs ground beef OR ground lamb
2 medium onions, finely grated
2 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
3 garlic cloves, crushed or 3/4 tsp of granulated garlic
1TBSP cumin, powdered
1 cup finely chopped fresh parsley or 1/3 cup dried parsley flakes
3/4 cup water

Mix all ingredients in a large bowl and refrigerate for 24 hours. When ready to grill, roll small amounts of the meat into sausage shapes, 2-inches long and 1- inch wide. Grill until the juices run clear. Makes about 40

* Cumin is perhaps the most ancient of Balkan spices. A member of the carrot family, it is cultivated for its seeds, which are generally ground to produce cumin powder. Cumin is an ingredient in chili powder and Indian masala, but it comes into its own in Mediterranian and Balkan cooking.

Heading for the fridge for 24 hours

I fried up a test patty shortly after mixing everything together.  It had that gourmet burger taste. The cumin hadn't had a chance to permeate the meat yet. Will see what tomorrow brings

[Tenpoint5]

Well I finally got around to posting a picture of the Kebabcheta. Now your going to ask what it tastes like. It was a cross between a gourmet burger and a kicked up meatloaf. I will make these again.
