I say Kawap..... you say Kawap....... everybody eats Kawap.

I was so blessed to get to know my Uyghur friends while staying in Karlsruhe. Rod King was able to help them alot, and i felt blessed to be able to reap the benefits of that relationship and to help in any way that i could. there were so many good times had, visiting, helping with moving, picnics and of course, grilling.

grilling must be a national specialty. the guys built there own special grill and would look for any occasion to get it out and make Kawap. Yummy, Yummy lamb meat..... mmmmm....... and lots of it.

it was such an awesome addition to my last week in Germany to be able to see anwar's new garden, plus to relax, and eat Kawap again before i left germany. Kawap is a Uyghur specialty food. Lamb meat marinated in different spices and grilled on a specially made grill. it's just super yummy.



Gulnar explained to me that there isn't a proper representation of true Kawap on the internet and that there should be pictures and videos of Kawap being made and eaten. so i took up the challenge of putting a couple videos online, plus some pictures of Gulnar eating Kawap while wearing a traditional Uyghur dress.





So this post is for Gulnar and all the Uyghurs out there. and cause it's just really yummy.
