Homemade Cevapi with Savoury Magic

If you’ve ever tried Kebapi (or Ćevapi), you know just how juicy, flavourful, and addictive they are.

This version uses only a few ingredients, but the star of the show is Savoury Magic Natural Seasoning, which packs every bite with delicious, balanced flavour.

Ingredients:

• 500g beef mince (ideally with a bit of fat for juiciness)
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons Savoury Magic Natural Seasoning
• ¼ teaspoon baking soda
• Optional: a splash of cold water for mixing

Instructions:

1. Prep the mixture
   In a large bowl, combine the beef mince, chopped onion, Savoury Magic, and baking soda. Mix well with your hands until all ingredients are fully incorporated. For extra tenderness, add a tablespoon or two of cold water while mixing.
   
2. Shape the Kebapi / Cevapi
   Take small amounts of the mixture and roll them into small sausage-like shapes, about the size of your index finger. You should get around 12–15 pieces.
   
   
3. Chill (optional but recommended)
   Let the kebapi rest in the fridge for 20-30 minutes. This helps the flavours meld and the texture firm up for grilling.
   
4. Grill or Pan-Fry
   Cook over a hot grill or in a lightly oiled pan, turning occasionally until nicely browned and cooked through (about 8–10 minutes total).

Serving Suggestion:

Serve your Savoury Magic Kebapi with fresh bread (like lepinja or pita), sliced onion, ajvar, or a side of yogurt for the full Balkan street-food experience.

Simple. Juicy. Unforgettable. Magical.
This recipe is perfect for a weekend BBQ, a weeknight dinner, or any time you want big flavour with minimal fuss.
