Instructions
Preheat oven to 400ºF (200ºC) or grill.
Soak wooden skewers for at least twenty minutes so they don't catch fire in the oven.
Mix all the ingredients in a large bowl.
Using your hand make fist sized balls.
Shape the kaftas as you put the meat on skewers.
Place on a tray if going in the oven otherwise put the skewers directly on your grill.
It will take roughly 20 minutes turning once. Maybe a bit quicker on the grill.
