Resep dalam Bhs Indonesia ada dibagian bawah

Merhaba From Türkiye 👋

First of all, I'd like to thank you for visiting my blog. I hope you can come back, again and again, to check up on any beyond Indonesian or Turkish food or something sweets that you might love. Your comments and emails brighten my days and make this simple blog thing worthwhile 😍💛

Köfte or Kofta is definitely everyone's number one favorite here. As kebab, köfte is like a staple and almost everyday meal for locals. Men women adult to toddler.

And just like kebab, köfte has many variants based on the meat used and its origin. 

There is İzmir köftesi origin from İzmir city (see recipe here), or when you visit Bursa you should try Pideli Köfte, it's a small flat meatball served over pide flatbread flush with yummy tomato sauce then "fizz" with hot melted butter. You can check how to make it home here. There is another köfte from İnegöl town named İnegöl Köfte.

Each köfte (meatball) has its own type.

And today İ'd like to share my family's favorite; Köfte Kebabı or Kofta (meatball) kebab. At a glance, it may look alike Adana Kebab, but it's totally different.
This is just simply meatball wrap over 2 cm wide bamboo skewer then grill or roast in oven/grilling. The spice used for this köfte is more simple than Adana Kebab, but believe me, it is still packed with the flavor of Turkish cuisine.

Serve it with fresh simple salad and pickles. Wrap it wit lavash bread or pide bread.   
So..are you with me to the most fave meal of any family? Take a note and follow my simple yet best köfte kebabı.
Best meat to make this kebab is using lamb meat mix with beef, but if you don't like lamb too much, just reduce the portion of lamb and replace with beef.

How to make Ayran/ yogurt drink

For 1 lt yield, you will need about 300 gr ~ 400 gr plain thick yogurt (depend on thickness you'd like), but mostly I make on those range quantity. Put on big jar, give pinch of fine salt (about half tsp). Pour cold water about 300 ml, using hand handle blender or just manually with wooden spoon to stir until all yogurt dissolve.

After all yogurt completely dissolved, pour more cold water up to 1 lt and mix/ stir again to make them well  blended.Keep in refrigerator before serving.

You can add some more buzz when served if you want.

BAHASA İNDONESİA

Assalamu'alaykum..... Merhaba dari Türkey.

Tak terasa sudah weekend aja yah.... Berasa cepat atau saya aja yang merasa kurang waktu. Ah.. mudah-mudahan saya tidak termasuk orang yang merugi. Karena Allah sudah berpesan dalam Al Ashr 1-3:

وَالْعَصْرِ – إِنَّ الْإِنسَانَ لَفِي خُسْرٍ – إِلَّا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ وَتَوَاصَوْا بِالْحَقِّ وَتَوَاصَوْا بِالصَّبْرِ –

“Demi masa. Sungguh, manusia berada dalam kerugian, kecuali orang-orang yang beriman dan mengerjakan kebajikan serta saling menasihati untuk kebenaran dan saling menasihati untuk kesabaran.” (QS.Al-Ashr:1-3)

İnshaallah menjaga anak dan keluarga menjadi bagian dari mengerjakan kebaikan itu.. karena profesi saya ya ibu rumah tangga... 😍

Naah.... biasanya kalau weekend atau akhir pekan saya biasa masak sesuatu yang istimewa buat keluarga. Biasanya masakan yang "top request" deh...hehehehe...  Selain bikin cake atau dessert lain tentunya.

Salah satu masakan favorit anak dan suami adalah köfte atau meatball Turki. Yaaa... seperti kebanyakan favorit keluarga lokal disini ya. Kali ini saya bikin köfte kebab. Sekilas mirip dengan Adana kebab yang saya posting sebelumnya... tapi ini beda banget. Köfte kebab ini berbahan dan berbumbu sederhana layaknya köfte atau meatball tapi saya susun dalam tusukan bambu menyerupai kebab. 

Di Turki sendiri ada banyak macam köfte(metaball) berdasarkan bahan atau daerah asal. Tiap region mulai timur hingga barat mempunyai jenis köftenya masing-masing. Misalnya izmir köfte, atau yang terkenal dari Bursa adalah pideli köfte dan inegöl köfte dari İnegöl. Belum lagi içli köfte atau çiğ köfte...semua sudah pernah saya posting ya sebelumnya...tinggal diaduk-aduk aja list diside bar saya... 😊

Yukk... yang pengen coba menyajikan masakan khas Turki buat keluarga.. dijamin otentik dan lezat seperti yang biasa ditemui di resto-resto disini.
Saya pakai daging kambing muda dengan campuran daging sapi seperti rata-rata yang dipakai disini. Tapi kalau ingin pakai daging sapi full atau porsinya lebih banyak daging sapi ya gak papa.
