Diyarbakır Liver Kebab is cooked on skewers approximately 60 cm long. For this, the skewers are arranged with 1 liver, 1 tail fat, 2 livers, 1 tail fat, and 1 liver in sequence. After the spices and components are threaded onto the skewers, they are sprinkled with the spices. Then the skewers are turned on a flameless fire at a 180-degree angle to ensure the kebab is cooked.
