Hi Binnur,
My Dad's Auntie (who is Turkish Cyprot) made a meal with lamb and okra(bamya). I think it also had a tomatoe based sauce. I don't remember what it is called, do you know what it might be and how to make it?
Cheers,
Deniz.
Hi Deniz,
We call it Okra with Lamb (Etli Bamya). I posted Okra with Chicken. Here it is
http://www.turkishcookbook.com/2006/03/okra-with-chicken.php
If you like you can try this first:) I will post the other for you soon:)
Hi Binnur...
My wife and I were in Cappodocia recently where we had "Pottery Kebabs". They were great! We just recently bought a Slow Cooker and I was wondering if there might be a recipe for the Slow Cooker that might be anything like one of those "Pottery Kebabs" that we loved so much...
Thanks for your time,
-Tim-
Hi Tim,
What you're asking about is called "Testi Kebabi" (or Comlek Kebabi)
and it translates to "Kebap cooked in a sealed clay pot". It is really
tasteful:) You may not get the same taste when you cook in the slow
cooker, actually I personally never used it. It is hard to tell you
the result, but you should give it a try. We cook Comlek Kebabi at home using "earthenware pot" (toprak guvec) with the lid on and in the oven. I will post it for you soon. Meanwhile you can try a slow cooker and layering lamb or beef cubes, onion and vegetables with water and cook:)
Hi Binnur,
Ok then, thanks for your advice. I will keep an eye for the Comlek Kebabi.

Hi Binnur!
I just returned from a trip to Alanya, where we had a wonderful dish, called Osmanish Pan, served i a claypot or sometimes a ironplate. I bought the spice-mix on the market, but haven't been able to find a recipe to what else goes in this dish??
Any chance you can help me out?
BR Maria
Hi Maria,
It is a very special dish from the Ottoman era called Osmali Tava. It
can be cooked with veal, beef or lamb. The variety of vegetables comes
seasonally for this dish. In Turkey we have dishes for 4
seasons...because having them seasonal gives the best taste. Also
every restaurant cooks it in a different way. You need to cook the
meat first until it is soft. Then add butter, vegetables and spices.
You can tomato paste or crushed tomato, it depends on what kind of
vegetables you are using. Place them in an oven proof dish
(casserole). Put it in the oven and cook over medium heat until the
meat is tender and vegetables are cooked. If necessary add some hot
water occasionally.
Take care,
Binnur
Hi Binnur,
I am trying to find the recipe for what I know as "Iskendar Kebab". I am not sure if I have the correct name so am going to describe it to you also - Its a multilayered dish with meat as the base, a red sauce above it and topped with yogurt and i believe some kind of bread.
We had it in our recent trip to Istanbul and completely fell in love with it. Please let me know if you can let us know how to make it.
Thanks
Hi I got your second message....all the answers are there:)
Merehaba Binnur,
I grew up in Izmir (6 yrs of my childhood) and I miss it and the food and the people terribly. I was wondering if you have a recipe or know of how I can get one for turkish pizza? It was an individual pizza with a salami type meat and a very long slender pepper cooked on it. It was absolutely wonderful. I would really appreciate it since my father talks about this alot.
Thank you and Best Wishes,
Lorelei
Merhaba Lorelei,
We have a lot in common, I miss Turkey a lot too:) You are asking
about Sucuklu Pide or Koca Gormez....and it has more names :) I
already prepared Koca Gormez (Sucuklu Pizza) which is on my waiting
list...I'll post it for you soon:) It is very easy to do and you
should only need to buy Sucuk from Turkish Grocery.
Take care,
Merehaba Binnur

Hi Binnur,
Thanks very much for all the great recipies, my partner is Turkish and we have just returned from Ayvalick where we were on holiday. I ate this turkish dish there, which is like a think bread, which is stuffed with meat, or potatoes or cheese. I can't remember what it was called, these ladies were making it at a fair, they roll out really think dough and then fill it in a rectagular shape with the stuffing and cook it on a wok turned upside down. If you know what i mean and you can give me the recipie for it for both potatoes and meat i would be very very very greatful!!!!
Tesekkur ederim (from my little turkish!!!)

as many people have, my dad spent a lot of time in turkey when he was in the usaf. he brought home a recipe for a dish that was served with this yogurt dip and ekmek.
i am trying to figure out with the dish was but unfortunately my dads memory is going quickly.
maybe you can help me.
it had roasted vegetables, like mushrooms, peppers, big red onions, on a big pan, along with beef and sometimes lamb. it also had roasted to,matoes that had been mashed up that we ate with the bread and dip. i also think it had eggplant, but i stayed away from that bit because i was a picky teenager at the time.
i could probably make it, but i am not sure what spices to use, does it sound familiar?
thanks!
Hi,

Hello Binnur,
On a recent visit with my mother to a restaurant that specializes in Turkish Cuisine, we came across 2 dishes that we absolutely enjoyed. The dish my mother had is called Chicken Adana, and the dish I had was Lamb Saute. I guess I should give more detail on what was in the Lamb dish, it had Onion, a tomato based sauce, Olives and Red Peppers and a few other things that I cannot recall off hand, but those are the ones that stood out to me. Is there a chance that you might be able to post these recipes. I would really appreciate it.
Thanks in Advance

Hi Jonathan,
I think the dish your mother had is called Chicken Tava from Adana region. I am going to post it soon. But I don't know the other dish that you asked about, there are so many of them with those ingredients.
Hi Binnur
I hope you can help me locate a recipe I had over 20yrs ago in Cyprus.
It was with lamb and onions, I had this dish with a local Turkish family and watched how they made it.
This is what I remember. The onions were done first, lots of them perhaps 2 or 3 chopped up fine and cooked over a very low heat for at least 30 or so mins.
Almost like sweating them so to speak without browning them.
The lamb was then fried in a frying pan and added to the softened onions with herbs
and I think tinned tomotoes.
Thats all I can remember but I know the finished dish tasted wonderful, very thick and served over rice.
Greek stifado comes close but not exact as they use whole small onions and different ingredients.
It may be Beef Stew with Onions. There may be variations to the recipes slightly different from region to region. Therefore it is difficult to identify. You may add 1 or 2 tbsp flour which gives thickness.
