The chelo kebab is the national dish of Iran. Served on skewers over a bed of rice this recipe is basic, yet full of flavor. I prefer to grill this over a charcoal grill. Served with pita bread and salad such as tabbouleh.
Ingredients:

1 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 large onion, chopped
Directions:
1. In a mixing bowl combine all ingredients.
2. Take about 1/4 of the meat mixture and form into a ball.
3. Place ball through flat skewers.
4. Press around skewer into square cigar shapes.
5. Repeat with remaining meat for 4 kebabs.
6. Place on grill and cook about 4-6 minutes each side, until meat is no longer pink and done.
