This street food favorite, brought to the home table, is made by wrapping lamb intestines around skewers with pieces of tail fat and grilling them over charcoal. The cooked mixture is finely chopped, tossed with spices, and served as a standout dish for parties and celebrations.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Prepare the intestines

20 min

Scrub the thoroughly cleaned lamb intestines with vinegar water and rinse them.

2

Wrap them around skewers

15 min

Wrap the intestines tightly around the skewers with pieces of tail fat.

3

Grill over charcoal

25 min

Cook the prepared skewers over glowing charcoal for 20–25 minutes, turning them occasionally, until browned on the outside.

4

Season and serve

5 min

Finely chop the cooked kokorec, mix it with Turkish red pepper flakes, cumin, and thyme, and serve hot.

Reminder

Important: Before grilling, scrub the intestines thoroughly with vinegar water and rinse well; otherwise, the smell will remain noticeable. Caution: Stay by the charcoal grill; dripping fat can cause flare-ups.
