Pas cu pas

1
Combine the ground beef, ground lamb, garlic powder, paprika, baking soda, salt, and black pepper in a large mixing bowl.

2
Gradually add the cold water while continuing to mix until the meat mixture is well combined and slightly sticky.
Aproximativ 2 min.
3
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the meat mixture for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
Nota bucătarului: This resting period is crucial for the texture and flavor of the cevapi.
4
Divide the chilled meat mixture into 24 equal portions.
Aproximativ 3 min.
Nota bucătarului: For consistent size, you can weigh each portion.
