Mititei Romanian Beef Sausage Rolls Recipes

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients except stock.
• Add about 1/2 cup stock and work it into the meat mixture. Continue adding stock until mixture is worked to very soft consistency. You may not have to use all the stock.
• Cover it well and refrigerate 4 hours or overnite.
• Shape into cylinders 1" diameter by 3" long.
• Cover and chill again for 3 to 4 hours.
• Grill over very hot coals, gas grill, or broil in oven, turning often until nicely browned on outside but still having a slightly pink interior.

Steps:

• Combine beef, oil, garlic, baking soda, thyme, red pepper, paprika, caraway seeds, and 2 tablespoons water in a large bowl.
• Season with salt and pepper and knead for 5 minutes, wetting your hands frequently to help keep mixture moist.
• Cover bowl and refrigerate for at least 5 hours.
• With wet hands, roll meat, 1 tablespoons at a time, into small balls, then shape balls into sausages about 3'' long and 1'' thick. Heat a grill pan over medium heat.
• Cook sausages in batches, turning frequently, until well browned and cooked through, about 10 minutes.
• Serve as an hors d'oeuvre or with potatoes as an entrée.
