Ooh, I just did a search for a photo and found a rather different looking Mititei recipe that looks INCREDIBLE: http://seriouslygood.kdweeks.com/2006/04/mititei-romanian-sausage.html

I should put my recipe for these Mititei on here too! I had them in Romania and they were prepared for me by my daughter's Godmother (15 yrs. ago) who has since passed away.


YES! You should!! and we should make sure it makes its way into the sausage group :)

This is pretty much precisely the recipe I have for Mici (which we also call Mititei! Ba da!)... It definitely turns out well! Yummmmy!


This bring back memories :) Thank you for the recipe! My dad used to add some lamb in it, too - of course, he is Greek... there was always a lot of debate over this add on at my house (my mom being the Romanian)
