At Kebab House in Sparks, owner Aileen K. Mirzayan serves several types of Armenian kebab. Her two best sellers are lula kebabs, made from lean ground beef mixed with chopped onion, parsley and spices, and lamb kebabs. In connection with this week's main story on Middle Eastern grilling, Mirzayan provided this recipe for a salad that Armenians eat with kebabs.
