BOSNIAN ĆEVAPI RECIPE

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine beef, lamb, and salt (plus other spices if you so desire)
• Knead the mixture with clean hands for 5 minutes
• Cover the meat with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight
• Uncover the meat and stir in minced garlic and black pepper
• Shape the mixture into small logs no longer or wider than an index finger - it is best to do this with wet hands, so the meat does not stick to you. Keep wetting your hands after each few that you roll
• Preheat your grill. Ideally, you should use a charcoal grill

• Grill the minced fingers on a medium heat until evenly grilled and browned on all sides
• Serve warm with Turkish flatbread and freshly chopped onion (and ajvar if you have it!)
