Persian Kebabs are well known for being the most delicious kebabs and that’s all down to the marinade. You can use veal, beef , or chicken and this is the recipe for one of two marinades we use. The other marinade uses mast or natural yoghurt rather than zafaran. Both are divine.
Serves 2
Ingredients for the marinade :
- 500 gr’s Lamb
- 1/2 teaspoon of zafaran
- 2 Onions
- 1 desert spoon of Lime juice
- salt and pepper
Method:
- Wash, trim and cut the lamb into large cubes
- Place the meat into a bowl
- Roughly chop the onion into quarters
- Pour on the zafaran and mix it well
- Add salt and pepper, lime juice
- Leave in the fridge to marinate for at least an hour before grilling
- Put the meat onto skewers and grill or BBQ until brown
Serve with zafaran rice and salad or Salad Shirazi, mast or natural yoghurt and sabzi khordan
Nooshi joonet. Enjoy
