Romanian Grilled Minced Meat Rolls (MICI) are great when grilled, but you could roast or pan-fry. Serve hot with good Italian bread and mustard accompanied by a cold beer. It is great for backyard parties. My friends just love it ! Ingredients:
2 pounds ground beef |
8 ounces chopped suet |
1/4 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon caraway seeds |
3 cloves garlic, minced |
salt and pepper to taste |
1 teaspoon finely ground juniper berries |
2 tablespoons water |
3 tablespoons vegetable oil |
2 tablespoons beef broth |
Directions:
1. In a medium bowl, mix together the ground beef, suet, baking soda, caraway seeds, garlic, salt, pepper and juniper berries using your hands. Mix with your hands for about 15 minutes, adding a little bit of the water at a time. This part can be made a few hours ahead of time if you like.
2. Preheat a grill for high heat. With wet hands form the meat into rolls about 3 inches long and 1 inch thick. Brush lightly with oil.
3. Grill the meat for 5 to 10 minutes, basting frequently with a mixture of beef broth and any remaining oil, until well done.
