for the Lamb Mince , basically Salt , Peper , 1 egg , Tumeric ( Optional ) ,tiny bit of Safran ( Optional ) , all in the bowl, i don't use Tumeric or Safran . you then massage the mixture until it changes color , with the Scewers you can either buy the scewers readily made or make them from stainless steel , they're flat scewers about 20mm in width and about 400 mm long , make a ball shape from mince pass it thru the top of the scewer then spread the meet on the scewers using your hands , there is an actual way in doing this and if you don't do it right when you place it over the fire it will fall off , when you've place the scewers over the coals then you need to keep turning it , bit like a Lamb on Spit.
when cooked enough over the coals it's served with either rice fresh mint / yoghurt , BBQ Tomatoes or instead of rice just Lebanese Bread you get from Supermarket.
that's really all there is to it...
