It's so refreshing to watch chefs who actually avoid wasting food. Keep it up!

[@caroczel]

I'm not vegan but always find loads of inspiration from your recipes 😊😁🌻💕💫🍅🌶️🧅🌮🌻💖

[@lmc1966]

It's vegan. It's raw. It's YUMMY 😋 😋😋😊😊😊❤❤❤!!!

[@Laura-mi3nv]

I'm surprised she didn't knock it out of their hands running up to it!

[@AnneluvsKatz]

Thanks! Love the vegetarian recipes!

İlk açıldığında abone olmuştum, İngilizce kanalınızın da bu kadar başarılı olmasına çok sevindim. Çok tatlısınız🥰 Mutlu yıllar🥳💝✨

[@gideonpaulalcaide]

just when you thought it’s already the best lettuce wrap recipe, they made it into a taco!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤

[@patriciamartin1626]

Hi from Tennessee USA. Looks absolutely delicious. Yummy. Thanks for sharing. Have a great day.

[@naomiemoore5725]

Mouthwatering! I could watch you all day. Your instructions and explanation is perfect. Anyone new to cooking can easily follow along. Providing substitute ingredients - as you stated, not all ingredients are available across the globe. Take care and stay safe. ❤️

[@Goodie-333]

Thanks for this! I had it once and have been looking for an English recipe to follow so I can replicate. The fact that it’s fast is now a huge bonus!

[@caitlinniciomhair9625]

Thanks!

[@cmtangoe9569]

This was my biggest discovery during my trip to Turkey last month!! I fell in love with the country through your videos, and had to go visit myself! This vegetarian dished saved my hungry tummy on many nights!!

[@jodrew1845]

This method of making vegan kofte looks so wonderful, I am so excited and can't wait to try it.🎉🎉🎉

[@Refika]

It will make you crave for more… ♥️

[@af2313]

This looks delicious! I especially love the addition of sumac onions!

[@jgage2840]

I love you all, but Bahar makes me laugh the most! 😂 And one bite should absolutely be half the taco!

[@ladybuggriffis2299]

Your videos always make my heart happy and I always learn from you! Thank you so much I am glad I found you on u tube….many blessings and be safe!🐞🦬🐢🥰

[@ledzep331]

My journey through the world is via food. There's no prejudice, no presumptions, just an appreciation of different cultures. The differences may be political, religious or geographical but enjoying and sharing food has always brought people together. Let's hope that despite vast chasms between some peoples in the world at this time, they will break bread together soon.

[@jonnekejorissen]

Thank you for making the cig köfte recipe quick and easy!

[@jgage2840]

I make this all the time. It’s easy, delicious and versatile. Today a used as the filling in rainbow chard rolls. I greatly appreciate Refika and team making such an accessible version. ❤

[@shubhisinghal2645]

I am traveling to turkey next month and can't wait to try Turkish cuisine. I am vegetarian and I have already shortlisted many vegetarian places to eat at Thank you for sharing vegan recipes and I will be trying those recipes at home 😊

[@OSheaDean]

Thanks

[@kingusing]

This taco trick is so very great! Love YOU ALL , REFIKA & GUYS! 💝💝💝💝💝

[@deniseferron3397]

Yummy! I can never get enough of vegan köfte!!

[@keenkhan6205]

I was looking for this thing for many years but I did not know what it's called 😊. Thank you super chef.

[@Refika]

Ahaha its your lucky day😊

[@robertaaddamo335]

I’m italian and I visited Istanbul last May for the first time. I fell in love with the city and with the food! I’m so happy I found your channel and also for this recipe. Unfortunately in Italy we don’t have pepper paste and pomegranate melassa but I’m going to use the options you have suggested. ❤

[@debbycoley]

Everything looks amazing and especially that taco! 🌮😊

[@nazirasaad6435]

I made this today following your recipe. It was fantastic x

[@indakumaragoonetilleke3006]

Thank you so much for this lovely recipe. We just returned from India. No tofu and we have had enough of Paneer - put on weight too. It is so nice to see both of you children showing the world how good vegetarian food can be. Thank you again🙏🏽. We may come to Turkey next year since my daughter has not been there and we have our good friend Federico who runs the Uno Bread Company we would like to see in Turkey and see one of the automated bakeries. Do you have an email address or any way we could communicate?

[@Refika]

Yes, we have! You can mail us here: [e-mail] ♥️

[@Zone10Permaculture]

Thank you for this easy cig kofte recipe!! My favorite Turkish food.

[@SophieBird07]

Wow! Just made these while watching your vid! Definite keeper. Flexible recipe too. I used some walnuts instead of peanuts. So glad I already purchased sumac and pomegranate molasses. Delicious and quick!

[@Refika]

thank you for this lovely comment ♥️ happy meal!

[@marisahimid8191]

Thank you guys so much my kitchen is changed so much beause of you. My diet its different all. Well you guys are amazing. Greetings from Tanzania East Africa ❤🇹🇿

[@lucieadjek8506]

😂😂 😆 Her one bite doesn't have to be half of the tacos. Refika, this has to be a joke 😜 when you make a lot of mouth 😋😋 watering and delicious recipes 👌👍. Me at home watching your videos, I'm always almost eating my tongue 👅😀. This is to tell you that your recipes are GREAT 👌and thank you so much for sharing them with us. Lots of ❤️❤️❤️ and 🥰🥰🥰to you and your crew. Be blessed as always 🙏🏿😇😇😀🤗.

[@Aquarian55]

Yummm i miss çiğ köfte sooo much. It was such a cheap and healthy way to eat when in Turkey!

[@elonanamor6420]

Love your videos, your joy of life, and your dedication to using what we have responsibly.

[@gmr87060]

You all always cheer me up and inspire me to try your recipes!

[@Patty7349]

Brilliant. Will make ❤. Love the lemon cut technique.

[@jgage2840]

Wow, this was super tasty! And quick. Refika and team really know food! I had to make a few substitutions and changes: - Used 1/2 a tomato because mine was a bit bland - Walnuts instead of peanuts - Couldn’t find sweet pepper paste, but I had a jar of Harissa paste which the ingredients listed as predominantly peppers so I used an equal amount - No Isot pepper to be found. I considered chipotle for the smokiness, but the Harissa paste was a bit smoky and slightly spicy so I used 1/2 tsp Aleppo red pepper flakes (which I bought because Refika told me to) - I assumed red pepper powder to be sweet paprika - No ice cubes because my ancient Braun food processor is a powerhouse that rarely heats up Even with all the changes, it still turned out delicious! I feel like this is a very forgiving recipe I’ll be able to tweak, but it’s so good as stated I can’t imagine wanting to change a thing. Plus it’s so healthy!

[@erincurley1234]

Love bulgar !! Gotta try this. Also appreciate the food waste tips - if you did a video or a series on how to limit food waste w various recipes would be awesome. Thx you for your cooking!

[@greatboniwanker]

Love your channel, your Amazon page is amazing, your staff is adorable (as are you!) and your recipes are fantastic! Thank you, Refika!

[@JM-vj7we]

Love Bulgur….. making this soon. 😋😘😊

[@rochelles.8387]

I made a gluten free lower carb version of this that is so delicious. I substituted ground lupin for the bulgur and 1/2 tsp. cayenne and 1/2 tsp. chipotle powder instead of the isot and the full teaspoon of cayenne. Mine has a mild spice level. I also used less but used cilantro instead of parsley because I only had cilantro and I wanted to make them as tacos. I also only used 1 tsp. pomegranate molasses since it is so high in carbs. I put a little gluten free soy sauce and a little allulose syrup instead of the honey Refika suggested. I had to make these changes because of my diet and ingredient availability. No matter, it is so delicious! Thanks Refika and your team! I love your channel!!

[@rochelles.8387]

This was softer than Refika's but it worked for tacos. If you want it firmer, add another 2 tbsp. ground lupin.

[@janetmackinnon3411]

What an excellent recipe! Tomorrow...mmm!

[@Kotik_Kompotik.]

Living in Istanbul and not being Türk I’m in love in Turkish dishes but still can’t understand çiğ köfte. I can eat only one and it’s enough, lol. I can eat everything, even kokoreç which is way too difficult for many people, but not this. Maybe I will try this recipe for my wife, who loves this dish ❤

[@Jamirio]

Raw meat cig köfte or meatless cig köfte

[@soniat1348]

Your recipes are amaziiiiing❤I wish I was there with u to teach me all your knowledge. 😊 Love it …Regards to all your team x

[@abbeyathome3189]

Awesome video. Thank you guys.

[@die4aaliyah]

Hi Refika (and team) I’m from the Caribbean and I love your videos so much 🤍💫

[@hulajia]

OMG! I love this idea!! I am mexican and I love turkish food :D

[@christiaanbianchinawiid309]

You guys are soo funny and interesting love you guys. The taco bulgar looks very tasty. I'll see if I can find some bulgar in our shops and make some because I'm in love with turkish food.

[@Refika]

This will become your new addiction. ❣️

[@stefimandi186]

appetizing recipe, tanks for sharing

[@FuriousCheddar]

Haven't seen a refika video in a while, missed your channel!

[@Khadeejahraja]

You just gave me our weekend family meal! Thank you ❤❤❤

[@martinkelleher6510]

love it you look like you're having a lot of fun

[@beanie7547]

I found some isot and have been enjoying adding it to some recipes.

[@cherieburger15]

Good morning!! Looks so yummy!!! 🤗🤗❤

[@OSheaDean]

Delicious. I use so much red pepper paste since finding your channel ❤

[@MagnusQ42]

I have made this easily 5 times this month. My blender is now exclusively for çiğköfte! Çok çok teşekuler! (I do double or triple the garlic cloves 😅)

[@madworld1962]

Brilliant!!

[@debbiemildenberger9084]

Yummy I'm looking forward to trying both of these and I'm not vegan. I have access to lots of Mexican food ingredients. I will use lime and cilantro in tacos. Question please - are there any limes in Turkey anywhere? I did not see when I visited. Please grow some limes 😊 Thank you for your show. My daughter lives in Antalya and watches too. ❤

[@MrSockKing]

I love your videos. And I have to order some of your olive oil.

[@brightantwerp]

Thank you for this easy great recipe!

[@aminaarmiento6820]

Hello Refika. I just came back from Turkye and brought spices and Köftelik bulgur for Çiğ Köfte! Two days ago I spent more than an hour to make them🤣 and just yesterday I saw your video and understood I could have done it with a food processor🤣 Thanks a lot for this simplyfied version,y. Subscribed too❤

[@cathylittle6752]

Refika, when will your cookbook be published in English?

[@Sun-l4d5k]

Thank you for the vegan recipe. happy with it🙏🙏🙏💕💕💕

[@smeeh7598]

Can't wait to try this.

[@nurrisart]

Looks amazing like everytime 🤩 I have to try this!

[@jyotikalapa7848]

This looks so delicious, I would love to make it. Sadly Bulghur is very expensive in my country, India

[@bebobabu1]

Refika I'm surely going to visit you for your food

[@somaliano99kingkonghimself75]

[@maryryan]

Thank you Rafika ❤️ Looks delicious 😋 Greetings from South Africa 🇿🇦

[@Refika]

😘😘😘 to south africa

[@azulceleste666]

When you say pepper paste, do you mean hot pepper like chilli. Or what we in Australia would call capsicum, which is the sweet not spicy bell pepper

[@alidemirci1655]

And this goes to Bahar mı? 😂 Refika sen muhteşem bir insansın🧿

[@VeretenoVids]

Yum, yum, yum!!!

[@MadameBlegh]

This was great! Everyone in my house omnivore and vegan alike were full and happy. I was wondering does it freeze well? I was hoping to make a huge batch and portion and freeze.

[@MadameBlegh]

If anyone was curious it DOES freeze well. I just thaw in my fridge and use with no negative impact on flavor or texture.

[@lisas.1681]

Another great recipe 😊

[@larsonewhipsnade1643]

Loved it!

[@sharmishthabanerjee6852]

Thank you for your content recommendation♥️

[@mariyamshahid5144]

Can u share how to make chicken iskender And there is a chili paste which turkish people put on bread too. please give a recipe that also tell which chili they use

[@cynmillar1]

Love you guys

[@GreenLifeInDublin]

Thank You for this wonderful looking recipe! Any idea what gluten free grain I could use instead of bulgur?

[@annslimmingandcraft8683]

I am loving your recipes and adapting them for my slimming world groups and sharing them. Do u not have an Amazon for the uk? Can’t seem to find it x

[@mabelpm]

I loved it ❤

[@MrWalter2202]

I love it!

[@justkens3844]

can you also make the not quick version but original version please ?

[@chloespetservices]

I love this Refika! But wholewheat burghul is not available in Malta. Making with white. Will it make much difference? I love your vegetarian recipes keep them coming. ❤ Marina

[@abdusco]

It might change the texture a bit, but you don't really taste bulgur in cogkofte. It's just there to soak spice & juices and give it some structure.

[@cvetannikolov2823]

Much bereket

[@lisaeastes3104]

❤❤ Interesting 😊

[@aishakizilbash9898]

Hello Refika, could you please send me the link of website to shop your products?

[@bettytroyer9436]

[@anginehh24]

Yummy 🤤👌🏼

[@bulent2435]

Me again, it's the 3rd time with the same comment under different videos. This is not a vegan food. It is a freaking delicious food which happens to be vegan. It has been eaten by millions of people in this kebab heaven for a good reason. 😋

[@terezaskitchen382]

Very nice yum yum

[@patriciamulligan4943]

**ARMENIAN Delicacy 🇦🇲 and yes, it is delicious 😋 . You are right about that!
