Kabab Maqley is a typical traditional Iraqi dish, it is usually cooked during dinner time. You can turn this recipe into a vegetarian dish by removing the beef and keeping the rest of the ingredients and spice mixture. Kabab Maqley can be used as in appetizer dish, can be made into delicious sandwiches. The type of bread that I would use to make a sandwich is pita bread, Iraqi flatbread, and Iraqi bread Samoon. Then I would add mint, tomatoes, cucumber, lettuce, fried eggplant, and onions. It can be used as a side dish with the chicken kabab, Amba salad, and Iraqi black tea is a must.
My mom cooked Kabab Maqley often, it is easy, fast and delicious. It can be cooked in less than 30 minutes, it is an excellent dish for working mothers because it can be prepared and replaced in the refrigerator and cooked as needed.
