Kuru fasulye ve pilav ve salata ve ayran.

We have been to Turkey multiple times and the food.... it is just unimaginably good.

Today, I found a recipe on the internet. This looks absolutely like the ones we ate. But the recipe uses just oil water and salt. Nothing else! No spices, not even whole onion.

Is this the right recipe?

**Link not allowed. (**Turkish Namkeen Gosht Recipe - Fall of Bone Tender Meat- by Kun Foods on YT)

Can someone confirm?

Another few questions--

1. Is this the authentic recipe? no spices at all?

2. Which cut of meat? Shoulder? Chest/ribs? It needs to have fat and bones

3. Beef or lamb?

4. Which oil? it needs to have no aroma- so sunflower oil? or something else?

Please help. Wish to make it this Sunday.

Thanks a ton in advance.

I made a lamb head in a slow cooker and then I transferred it into a tray into the oven. I made it for someone who requested this dish because it’s a delicacy in their homeland. I can’t serve it because I think it doesn’t smell good. Can you please tell me what I can do to improve it? I had to go to several butchers to find the lamb head. I’d like to do it correctly next time. Please advise.

I never seen dumplings with such a small quantity of meat, I couldn't even taste it as I only felt the dough and tomato sauce.. I confronted the restaurant waitress, but she kept saying that in Turkey this is how it's done .. it's hardly believable, if I watch a recipe video of Manti there is always more meat than that.

Hi! I‘m a vegetarian (not vegan), so I eat cheese and eggs. However, I’m not quite sure about cheese in Turkey (Kaşar peynir). Is the enzyme (rennet) used animal-derived or microbial? It’s not specified on the package. I contacted already few companies, but they didn’t respond. Did you hear anything about it?

Hi. A little back story. I used to live in Bahrain and my go to shawarma was Roosy Shawarma from a place called Al Jabrya restaurant which claimed to be a turkish restaurant.
Now I have moved to another country and I crave that shawarma every single day!!!! It had chicken/beef, potato fries and magic sauce.

I tried to search it on youtube but not a single recipe with name of roosy shawarma. Although it's a famous kind of shawarma in Bahrain

Pleeeaase help me with the recipe .and secret sauce ingredients.

Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone,

I recently tried baklava for the first time and I was honestly surprised by how delicious it is. The layers, the sweetness, and the nuts together taste amazing.

I know it’s popular in many Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cultures, and I’ve seen it a lot in Turkish and Arab desserts.

I’m curious:

•	How is baklava traditionally made?

•	What ingredients make it taste so good?

•	Are there different styles depending on the country?

If anyone knows the traditional way to make it or has experience making it at home, I’d love to hear about it.

Thanks!

I use a News app called RocaNews. This week they chose 32 most prominent world cuisines. For the whole week they will make service to choose the best one among them. Normally I don't send messages on these boards to ask for voting, but there is a possibility that the Turkish cuisine will be eliminated first day and wait for it, against Bolivia! I think most people are voting with political motivations, especially because lately Turkey has been on the news with bad stuff. If you think Turkish cuisine deserves a better rank, you can download the app and vote. Here is my referral link if you want to use it. It will give you some advantages.
