Tips

  • Ensure the mincemeat mixture is smooth and well incorporated for the best texture.
  • Drain excess liquid during baking to prevent the kebab from swimming and ensure crispiness.
  • Adjust seasoning to taste for preferred flavor intensity.
  • For a healthier version, use less olive oil.
