Instructions to make Full Turkish Lunch:
- Mediterranean Roast Chicken:
- Season the chicken with the spices then zest and juice one lime and rub it on the chicken. Set aside for at least 30 minutes (you can do this the night before).
- Preheat the oven to 400F. Prepare the roasting pan. Roughly chop the tomatoes and the other 2 limes. Chop and add the chili in the tray. Season then pour the stock or water then place a grill or rack on top for the chicken.
- Cook for 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes. Rest the chooks and take the roasting pan to the stove to make the sauce. Remove the limes and crush the tomatoes. Stir and reduce. This will be the sauce for the kofta. Add more stock or water if needed.
- Kofta Balls:
- Mix all the spices with the minced beef. Shape into golf-sized ball then push the mozzarella cubes in the center then reshape. Shallow fry in a skillet until cooked.
- Caramelized Pineapple Salsa:
- On a dry pan, caramelize the pineapple until a little brown then chop into small cubes. Mix with finely chopped onion and garlic. Season and add chopped tomatoes and parsley.
- Pita Bread:
- Mix together the flour, yeast, salt, oil, sugar and water until it forms a rough dough.
- Transfer to a floured surface then knead until dough is smooth and supple.
- Set aside to prove for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Punch down and divide into 8 or 10 balls. Roll-out each ball thinly.
- On a dry pan, cook the bread on each side until light brown. Wrap the stack of pita bread in a cheese cloth or clean towel to keep it soft and warm.
- Hummus:
- Combine all ingredients in a blender then blitz away. You can drizzle the oil into the blender while it's mixing to avoid splitting. Adjust the salt as you see fit. Bon appetit.
Rich and savory, not spicy particularly - the delicacies among the Turkish foods have been littering the menus of restaurants all over the world. Heritage of the Ottoman cuisine, a traditional Turkish food menu infamous for its meat-full skewers, but there is a lot more to it. Turkish tea (black, always–you'll find herbal teas in restaurants, but most Turks reserve herbal and green teas for bedtime) is the way to go if you're looking to replicate an authentic. Diced oven-roasted turkey, bacon, chopped eggs, diced tomato, avocado, and Bleu Cheese crumbles arranged on fresh crisp greens. Summer tomatoes and green peppers combine with eggs in a pan to make this simple, quick and oh so yummy meal.
