Grilled Koobideh Kebabs

Finely chop the onion and garlic.

In a large bowl, combine ground meat, chopped onion, garlic, salt, black pepper, and turmeric if using.

Mix thoroughly until well combined. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.

Divide the meat mixture into 4 equal parts. Wet your hands and mold each part onto a skewer, shaping into elongated sausages.

Brush the skewers with vegetable oil to prevent sticking.

Grill the kebabs over direct heat, turning occasionally, until cooked through and slightly charred, about 10-15 minutes.

Remove from grill and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
