Made scallion bread and used it to make fried egg sandwiches and take the new batch of chile oil for a spin.

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 :slight_smile:

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.

2-egg omelette - my good spatula was in the dishwasher so I had some trouble folding this neatly!

Looks neater than any omelette I’ve folded too. Mine end up looking like scrambled eggs in the end :grinning:

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.
