How to make Moroccan Kefta Kabobs

Tips from the cook

  • Mix the meat well until everything is combined, so the kebabs hold together.
  • If you use wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 25 minutes so they do not burn.
  • Grease the grill well with oil, so the kefta does not stick.
  • Thicker kefta stays juicier, while thinner kabobs cook faster.
  • Serve with rice, salad or in a wrap.
