Tips

  • Ask your butcher for a fatty piece of veal.
  • For those who love strong flavors, just increase all the spices in the marinade by one teaspoon.
  • For even browning, turn your kebab every 10 minutes with a nice pair of tongs.
  • To remove its strong flavor, the onion put it in ice water with some lemon juice.
