Notes
Spices can be added and changed slightly to create your very own version of this dish.
Kebab is a term that is translated to “grilled (or broiled) meat“. In Turkey, there are in excess of 54 different types of kebabs.
Most traditional Turkish cooking would take place over an open fire or a wood-fired oven, which adds a specific flavor to the dish.
I trust that you will enjoy this dish above and that you would be adventurous enough to make some small changes to suit your own particular taste.
