Preparation

[edit]
Lula kebab

The soft portion of the mutton is ground with onion using a meat grinder and mixed with pepper and salt. There should be 400 grams of onion in per 1 kilogram of minced meat. This ratio is followed to make it stay on the skewer. The meat mash is mixed well and stored in the refrigerator for an hour.[5] Later the mince is extracted from the refrigerator and is mixed well. The mince is wrapped around the skewer.[6] The mince gets slightly long form on a slightly wide skewer. Then it gets fried on coal barbecue, called a mangal. It's cooked for 10-15 minutes.[7] The kebab is served between the lavash. Sprinkling sumac on it is optional.
