Spiced Meat Loaf Skewers
Ground beef seasoned with cumin, cinnamon, and fresh parsley is shaped onto skewers and grilled over high heat until charred outside and juicy within. Served with a garlic-yogurt sauce, a scatter of sumac onions, and warm pita, this is a Middle Eastern grill-counter staple built for smoky, spiced, handheld eating.
