Directions
Place all the ingredients in a mixing bowl and mix well. Using your hands achieves a more even result. Cover with clingfilm and leave for 2-4 hours.
Preheat the grill to hot.
Shape the meat into 12 cylinders (about 12cm/5-inches long and 2.5cm/1 inch thick). Slightly flatten them just to stop them rolling around, then cook under the grill for 15-20 minutes, turning frequently and basting with oil if the meat is very lean.
Traditionally served with Luttenitza, white beans, pickles or a salad.
