Ingredients
- 500 g beef minced
- 1 garlic crushed, clove
- 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
- 1 tsp smoked paprika sweet
- 1 egg
- 50 ml sparkling water
Instructions
- Pre-heat your oven to 200° or your grill to high. In a mixing bowl, mix together the beef, crushed garlic clove, bicarb, egg and sparkling water. Scrunch altogether with your hands and season well.
- Divide the meat mix into equal sized pieces (roughly 5/6 pieces). Shape them into sausges using your hand and place on an oiled grid sitting over a drip tray. Cook them in the hot oven (this is what I did) or under a hot grill for 10 minutues or until cooked through.
Notes
- Grilling - I actually cooked our cevapi in a hot Aga roasting oven however if you wish to grill these, I would recommend putting them up high, as close to the heat as possible. You may need to turn them to ensure even cooking, as well as maybe adding on an extra 5 minutes to the cook time.
- Storage - You can store these for a day or two in the fridge, in a well sealed contained. They'll be nice eaten cold or you can re-heat (see below).
- Re-heating - Cevapi can be reheated either in a hot oven for about 15-20 minutes, in a microwave for about 5 minutes or you can fry them in some oil. Please make sure you reheat thoroughly until piping hot.
- Freezing - These grilled sausages can be frozen pre-cook or post-cook. Not matter if you are freezing the raw or cooked sausages, you may want to freeze them on a tray first (lay them all out separately on a tray and place delicately in the freezer so they are all upright) and then once frozen, put them all in a freezer bag. Doing this will ensure they don't stick together when freezing.
- The raw frozen sausages will keep for 1-2 months. The cooked frozen sausages will keep for 2-3 month before the quality is compromised. Defrost thoroughly before re-heating (see above).
