Now this is not your classic kafta Arayes, call it the distant relative of Arayes. It has the same concept of stuffed raw seasoned meat filling that is grilled, the difference is in the filling. Here we will be using the same filling of sfeeha that is made of lamb/ beef, onions, tomatoes and spices! Nothing sounds fancy, right? It is scrumptious! Strictly speaking, this is more of a main dish than a mezze; it makes an effortless dinner or a quick weeknight meal that everyone will devour!
