Steps

Step 1:
Place the minced beef and pork in a bowl.
Step 2:
Chop the onion very finely and grate the garlic cloves.
Step 3:
Add the onion and garlic to the bowl.
Step 4:
Add the chopped parsley, paprika, baking powder, dried breadcrumbs, water, vegetable stock cube, salt, and pepper.
Step 5:
Mix well with a hand mixer fitted with dough hooks.
Step 6:
Cover the bowl with cling film or plastic foil and leave to rest in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 hours.
1–2 h
Step 7:
Take portions of the meat mixture, about 50–55 g (1.7–1.9 oz or ¼ cup) each, and form the cevapi. Make the rolls about as thick as your thumb and 7–10 cm (3–4 inches) long; this makes about 18 sausages.
Step 8:
Grill the cevapcici on a hot grill pan or barbecue for about 12–14 minutes, turning several times, until browned and cooked through. Check one by cutting it in the middle, then grill subsequent batches for the same length of time.
12–14 min
Step 9:
Serve hot. To reheat, warm the cevapcici in an oven at 180°C/350°F for about 10 minutes or until heated through; check one and give the sausages a few more minutes if needed.
