Cookbook:Romanian Grilled Sausages (Mititei)

| Romanian Cuisine

Mititei or mici (grilled skinless sausages) is a typical Romanian dish. Usually in Romania you can find the prepared meat mixture in most food shops, and you only have to cook them.

Ingredients

 * Minced pork meat (or beef/beef-pork combination)
 * Minced garlic
 * White pepper
 * Paprika

Procedure

 * 1) Combine all ingredients to form a paste.
 * 2) Shape meat mixture by hand into 7–8 x 2–2.5 cm (3 x 1 inch) sausage shapes. Each should be about 50 grams.
 * 3) Grill the sausages until cooked through. Do not let them dry out.
 * 4) Serve with salt, mustard, and bread.

Notes, tips, and variations

 * If grilling is not possible, you can fry the sausages in a skillet with some lard. Do not use oil.
