Sameeeee. Time’s running out!
Made scallion bread and used it to make fried egg sandwiches and take the new batch of chile oil for a spin.

Ima need a cigarette now.
Potato and cheese tacos, roasted tomato and habanero salsa, and lime pickled shallots. This was a tasty way to clean out the fridge!
Homemade fruit salad (cantaloupe, kiwi, strawberries, pineapple, apple, orange) and a freshly-made Skinnytaste high-protein bagel made with both yogurt and cottage cheese and topped with a ton of whipped cream cheese.
Fabulous “Mediterranean” breakfast at the new(ish) Turkish restaurant: very good & filling menemen we couldn’t finish,
delicious simit with whipped butter & aMAZing honey & rose jam (!),
olives, date tomatoes and various cheeses, Anatolian cheese börek,
and an order of their very good & rich cigköfte.
We were absolutely stuffed afterwards and glad we had some errands to run, otherwise it would’ve required a long nap
Which meat did they use - beef or lamb ?
Bulgur.
That’s always in them but cigkofte means “raw meatballs” and has always some kind of ground or chopped raw meat
These don’t. They’ve vegan, actually. As per the restaurant’s website: spicy, flavorful raw bulgur patties with herbs & spices, served with lettuce.
I have never seen that before - and they use raw bulgur ? That’s a bit hard to believe as it would be hard and unpleasant to digest. I assume they cooked or hot soaked the bulgur but actually nothing is really raw/“cig” in these kofte
You can find the contact information on the restaurant website if you wish to find out more.
Looks neater than any omelette I ever folded. Just sayin’
Looks neater than any omelette I’ve folded too. Mine end up looking like scrambled eggs in the end
Wiki disagrees.
" Traditionally made with raw meat, there are vegetarian variations made with bulgur and in Urfa, a local meatless version is made with scrambled eggs.[6][7] In Şanlıurfa province, locally prepared batches are sold by street vendors.[8]"
Kofte/kofta indicates a ball-shaped food item, which can be non-vegetarian or vegetarian.
