• Shape mixture into small cylinders about 1 inch in diameter and 2-3 inches long.
• Place formed sausages on a wax paper lined plate in layers (you could also freeze them at this step for making at a later time)
• Grill over medium heat, about 8 minutes on each side or until well done.

CEVAPI (GRILLED SERBIAN SAUSAGES)

Steps:

• In a large bowl mix together all ingredients.
• Using slightly over 1 Tbsp of meat mixture per sausage, shape the mixture into sausages the size and shape of a fat finger (roughly 3 inches long and ¾ of an inch in diameter).
• Place all the formed sausages in a single layer on a platter. Cover the platter and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (up to overnight).*
• When you are ready to cook your sausages, preheat your grill to medium heat, 350-400⁰F. (You should be able to hold your hand a few inches from the cooking grate for 5-7 seconds.)
• Grill the sausages using a fine grate grill pan for 4-5 minutes a side, until golden and springy.
• Serve the cevapi with sliced sweet onions and flatbread (like lepinja or pita).

CEVAPI OR CEVAPCICI RECIPE - CROATIAN FOOD

Steps:

• Combine: Place the ground meat in a bowl. Chop the onion very finely and grate the garlic cloves. Add to the bowl. Add the chopped parsley, all sorts of paprika, baking soda, dried breadcrumbs, water, Vegeta, salt, and pepper. Mix well with the hand mixer fitted with the dough hooks.
• Refrigerate: Cover the bowl with cling film/ plastic foil and leave to rest for 1 or 2 hours in the refrigerator.
• Shape sausages: Take portions of the meat mixture, about 50-55 g/ 1.7-1.9 oz/ ¼ cup portions, and form the cevapi. The rolls should be about as thick as your thumb and about 7-10 cm/ 3-4 inches long. I had 18 sausages. You can easily double the recipe.
• Grill the cevapcici on the hot grill pan or the barbecue for about 12-14 minutes, turning them several times in between, or until brown and cooked through. I checked by cutting one in the middle and then grilling the subsequent batches for the same time.
• Serve hot as suggested above. The cevapcici can be reheated in the oven at 180 degrees Celsius/ 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 10 minutes or until heated through. Check one; if it is not hot enough, give the sausages a few more minutes.

• Lower the heat and continue cooking until vegetables are tender (you can cover a little bit if you want more liquid).
• Add tomato paste, salt , pepper and vegetable seasoning (Vegeta, if you have it).
• Serve with French Bread. Enjoy. Smacznego.
