Food vocabulary question
 
Hello, I have a question. We are talking about countable and uncountable things in my class and my ss are learning vocabulary about food. We �re having a rally next week and they �re really excited about it. However, today I came across this picture but I don �t know how to say it in English. Would you be so kind and help me... In spanish these are called "brochetas" but I cannot find  the translation.
Thank you in advance.

in Arab world they call it kebab. And in russian it �s also kebab if made of minced meat. If it �s meat in big pieces - it �s shashlyk. But i think the word Kebab is more international

It is interesting that in Russia this kind of food is called a shashlyk ! In Austria where German is spoken it is called Schaschlik with probably the same pronunciation as in Russian !
 
In English it is shashlik or shish kebab..........
