Put the minced beef and minced lamb in a wide bowl.
Add the cumin, black pepper, half the salt, and sparkling water, then knead for 8 minutes.
Shape the mixture into 8 long cylinders and rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Cut the potatoes into fries, toss with the remaining salt, and bake at 200°C for 24 minutes.
Oil the grill and cook the kebapche over medium-high heat for 14 minutes, turning.
Prepare the roasted pepper paste and ayran for serving.
Serve the kebapche hot with oven potatoes, roasted pepper paste, and ayran.
💡 Tip: Chill the shaped meat for 30 minutes; a warm mixture spreads on the grill and loses the kebapche form.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve kebapche hot with fries, roasted pepper paste instead of lyutenitsa, and optional ayran.
