Step 1
Toss potatoes with 2 tbsp oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on a sheet pan and roast at 425°F for 20 minutes until golden and crispy.
Step 2
Mix ground lamb with urfa chili, cumin, 0.5 tsp salt, and pepper. Form into 2 oval patties about 0.75 inches thick.
Step 3
Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Sear lamb patties 4 minutes per side without moving—edges should char.
Step 4
In the same skillet, char peppers and tomatoes cut-side down for 3 minutes until blistered, working in batches if needed.
Step 5
Quick-pickle red cabbage: toss with 2 tbsp red vinegar and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Let sit 2 minutes.
Step 6
Plate kebabs with fries, grilled vegetables, warm flatbread, raw red onion slices, pickled cabbage, and fresh parsley.
