Ingredients

1 medium onion
1 tablespoon sumac
4 Hungarian or Italian peppers
4 tomatoes, halved
1 pound lean ground lamb
1 1/2 cups finely chopped onion
2 cloves minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 cup chopped Italian parsley
1/8 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
Flat bread (Afghan) or 4 pitas

Steps:

Slice the onion as thinly as possible, and mix in the sumac, crushing the onion to release the juices.
Prepare stove-top grill, and grill whole peppers and tomato halves until they are tender; set aside.
Combine the lamb, chopped onions, garlic, red pepper, parsley, salt and pepper to taste, and knead to make a paste.
Divide into 4 equal portions, and mold on 4 flat skewers to make long sausage-like rolls.
Grill lamb kebabs on all sides, until they are browned.
Heat bread, and serve with kebabs, with onion-sumac relish and peppers and tomatoes on the side.

I would not recommend this recipe. The kebabs were dry and flavorless.

These kebabs were not very flavorful. I think I will try a different recipe next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but the kebabs fell apart when I tried to grill them. I think I will try baking them next time.

These kebabs were a bit dry, but they were still flavorful. I think I will try grilling them next time instead of baking them.

I made these kebabs with ground beef and they were still very good. I think they would be even better with ground lamb, but I didn't have any on hand.

These kebabs were a bit spicy for my taste, but they were still very good. I will definitely make them again, but I will use less chili powder next time.
