The Legend of Turkish Cuisine, Kebab | Very Easy, Homemade Shish Kebab Recipe

[@Refika]

• Soak 4 wooden skewers in water for an hour to prevent burning. You can skip that step if you using metal skewers. • Mix the red hot chili pepper, red pepper, green peppers and the garlic and chop them together again. • Season with salt and red pepper flakes -if using sweet peppers-. • Add the meat and chop them together to mix for 2 minutes. • Divide the mixture into 4 equal parts. • Mold each part onto separate skewers. Slowly push the meat mixture from top to the bottom with your fingers. Leave 3 cm gaps from the top and the bottom of the skewer. If the meat mixture seperate from the skewer, refrigerate it for around 15 minutes. Wetting your hands with cold water will help preventing stickiness. • Refrigerate for 15 minutes. • These are traditionally cooked on the barbecue, but I have a technique for you to create the same great taste at home using a cast iron pan. Heat your cast iron pan on high heat. • When the pan is hot, place your skewers on the sides of the pan without touching any part touching the bottom. This way, the heat from the pan will cook them. • Flip the skewers regularly and cook for 5-6 minutes. • For the onion with sumac, sprinkle a pinch of salt on the onions and rub it to soften. • Add in the olive oil, ground sumac, parsley, the rest of the salt, then mix again. • Put the lavaş on the kebap and press to let the bread soak all the flavours from the kebap. • It is time to eat! Wrap them all together in the lavash and take the perfect bite. Enjoy with your loved ones!

A little known fact the Midwest in the US (Minnesota, Wisconsin etc) also get hot in the Summer. I've seen it be 115F /46C on more than one occasion in Wisconsin. It's a hot hell in the Summer and a cold hell in the Winter. Last Winter I remember it getting to -40 F/ -40C on a few days. Yes Fahrenheit and Celsius meet at -40.

I traveled to Turkey at 14, we didn't get to stay but 2 days because we had been traveling all summer and Daddy had to get back to work. I have longed to return. Your lovely channel may be as close as I get at my age. We had a meal practically on the Bosporous (?spelling?). It was amazing. I remember it still after 50 years. We had so many dishes I had never heard of baba ghanoush (sp.) hummus, pita and an oily fish like smelts. I also drank a soda called Ankara cola. It was a beautiful joyful meal; I remember feeling so lucky. Mom and Dad were so young and attractive (just 48, they looked so much younger even.) The warmth, enthusiasm and joy that you share in Turkish food is wonderful. Thank you so much!

THANK YOU! I have always heard that Turkish food is excellent. I tried this recipe. First, you have to work with what you have. I came across a massive sale on 70/30 ground beef at the local store. I bought a lot and froze it. In making this I found the mixture of meat/chilis to be too wet to stick to the shish. So I put it as a thin layer on a 1/4 sheet pan on the grill. I made the salad and served with flour tortillas. YUMMMM!! Even my son who "doesn't like uncooked onion" loved it. We ate until we were stuffed. Will definitely make it again. Now to try some more of your recipes. (And to order more sumac from Amazon. It's not a common spice in the US.)

This looks simply mouth-watering! Thank you. When I was working on my teacher certification, I had to go out of town for a two-week course; the school's cafeteria was closed, so I walked off the campus and regularly visited a little restaurant called "Ike's International." Ike was Turkish, and he was such a friendly and delightful gentleman! And his food was *good*! That was more than 40 years ago, in North Carolina. More recently, in the southeastern suburbs of Paris, France, I begged a Turkish restaurant manager to tell me how to make his lentil soup. He told me to come back that afternoon when they weren't so busy. He took me into his kitchen and showed me step by step how to make it. I took notes and now I have the recipe. Unfortunately, the restaurant has changed hands a couple of times since then. Such a pity!

The Turkic way of yogurt is a bit sour and consistent in content. Because they were traveling long distances with horses in middle Asia times and shaking milk got cultured and became yogurt.

Oooooo this is such a beautiful, heart to heart thing to say.. thank you Sarah.. ı eas exactly the same.. beginning of 90s in Turkey there were not much good cooking shows, ı had just learned english, and cable tv eas new and in it there was bbc and few english channels.. ı used to watch ready steady cook, cant cook wont cook.. it is the really happy cosy moments.. thank you for reminding me too..

@@Refika you have no where to go but up with that amazing personality and lovely recipes. Jamie Oliver better watch out! Can't wait to continue watching!

[@richerbert2961]

First time I’ve ever attempted something like this. Absolutely delicious. Thank you Refika. This will now be a regular to make, no more takeaway!!

[@artmichel5572]

Ma’am, I loved watching this video as it reminded me of my great visits to Marmaris. I visited Turkey several times and as is common with me, I feel in love with your “foods.” I especially like that you explain the little bits of information to us viewers, like the reason why you flatten the kebab, or why the meat should be rotated before it drips, etc. Tesekkurler!

[@muchomalo100]

8 in the morning in the Netherlands but when I look at this video. I can eat this at breakfast! Or even better wake me up every time of the day

[@79pmcgovern79]

I'm so glad I discovered this channel. That kebab looks amazing. I was looking for tips on hummus and couldn't stop watching other videos. I'm definitely going to be making this.

Such a lovely way of teaching how to cook heavenly yet very easy food. A lot of love and appreciation from Canadian Pakistani 😘

I was stationed at Incirlik AB in 1976. All us airmen loved a good Adana kebab. Okay, I gotta try this.

[@10XFINANCEOFFICIAL-n4k]

Made this recipe for the entire family and they totally loved it!!! I was so inspire by your channel that Im thinking about Turkish cuisine for my next food business concept. Would you share more of your delicious recipes for the US market? Hope to hear from you soon.

[@steveshaw259]

Just recently discovered your channel, and already made a number of recipes, but these kebabs are an absolutely sensation. Just ordered some flat shishes online from turkey 😀… plenty more things to try still… thanks for the great tips and explanations on why certain technics and approaches give better results. Just need to let all the smoke out of the kitchen now 😀

[@anitajohnson6894]

I love how you make the dishes so easy for us and even give us great substitutes . I enjoy your enthusiastic way you explain things. That is what makes me go out the get the ingredients for that dish Thank you so much ❣️

[@tusker4954]

I love Turkish food! This is why! Used to visit for business once per month to Istanbul. One of the worlds best cuisines!

[@serawasnever13]

Oh my gosh, I have made this several times and it is soooooo delicious. My family had never eaten this before. I was able to find metal shish that resemble tiny swords and sumac too. Hugs and thank you from Seattle USA!

[@uzma3382]

I love Turkish food and now I’ll be able to make it myself from the authentic recipe first hand from a Turkish Thankyou! 😘

[@EzraWithAnA]

Love this will definitely try it out. Another one we always order is the Aubergine Kebab - slices of aubergine alternated with a sort of kofte and served with a delicious tomato sauce. We eat so much aubergine at home and would love to see this recipe. Thank you for all your wonderful recipes, you guys are a pleasure to watch.

[@Refika]

Hope you enjoy! Please let me know if you ever get to try 🥰

[@thfreakinacage]

The absolute single best part of this video without doubt, is that when you showed us the wide metal shish, you anticipated that people may find them hard to get and listed alternatives! So many recipes I've wanted to try in the past and they always have things in that I've never heard of and can never find! It's so damn annoying! But here, you list alternatives for people who will have this problem and I massively appreciate that :D :D I will no doubt be trying this recipe next week :)

[@kanzakamran5998]

The best thing about you is you share us each and every small detail so no one can go wrong 👍🏻👏🙏

Yes exactly, I couldn't agree more!!! I don't know where and how you popped up on my recommendations (I use KZbin for music or searching help videos like occasionally for recipes but never Turkish food etc) but I love you Refika now!! I've already watched 5 videos in a row 😂 I like cooking programmes and here in the UK your style is very similar to Jamie Oliver's but I can't lie I do like your style a little more 😋 I absolutely LOVED the Turkish translation in this episode, pls keep it up, I love how you can learn to cook and a new language at the same time lol! I love Turkey and esp. Istanbul and hope to return one day when the pandemic is over and use some of my new language skills haha! Please carry on with your informative and entertaining videos and thank you SO MUCH for considering your international fans! Such great tips in each video, please keep it up, thank you!! 👏🏼

My husband and i have become hooked to your recipes. Tried this kebab and i must say that it truly gives our kebabs from Pakistani cuisine a run for the hills.
