Duvar kebab is a traditional oven-cooked kebab made with minced meat and lamb. Its name is associated with cooking against an oven’s inner wall, and the traditional preparation is minimally processed.
In the traditional method, the seasoned meat mixture is pressed onto the hot inside surface of an oven and cooked there. This technique calls for a suitable oven; a baking tray is a practical home alternative.
Traditional Duvar kebab uses lamb along with minced meat, though the exact meat blend can vary by recipe. Ask the butcher for kebab-suitable mince and specify the blend you want.
Duvar kebab belongs to Turkey’s regional oven-kebab traditions, but its origin is not consistently attributed to one place. Recipes and claims about where it began can differ between regions and cooks.

Serve Duvar kebab with flatbread, grilled tomatoes and peppers, or a fresh onion salad. Yogurt or a yogurt-based sauce can also balance the richness of the meat.
Refrigerate leftover Duvar kebab in a covered container once it has cooled, rather than leaving it out for an extended time. Reheat it thoroughly before serving.

Duvar kebab is a Turkish kebab made with minced meat and lamb, traditionally cooked in an oven. Its name refers to a method in which the meat is pressed onto the hot oven wall to cook; seasoning and preparation can vary by region and cook.
It develops a browned exterior while staying tender inside, with richness from the meat. In Turkey it is served hot, often alongside onions, grilled peppers or salad, and bread. It is a filling, protein-rich main dish; for a lighter meal, pair it with plenty of salad or vegetables and avoid adding extra fat during cooking.
