Try a Taste of a Turkish Takeaway – Turkish Delight

The number of Turkish restaurants in the UK has significantly grown over the years. Doner kebab, a famous Turkish delicacy, has always been among Britons’ top favorites. But people are starting to be enlightened that Turkish food has many more delicious dishes to offer.

Turkish cuisine mostly came from the heritage of Ottoman cuisine. This cuisine can be described as a refinement and fusion of Balkan, Middle Eastern, and Central Asian cuisines.

The Ottomans found ways to fuse various culinary traditions in their region with influences from Middle Eastern cuisines. Through the migration of people from Central Asia, several kitchen cultures were passed and shared along. Turkish cuisine has, since then, no longer become limited to the monotype diet model.

Packed with loads of fresh vegetables and herbs, the most popular Turkish are delicious and healthy. Get to know other Turkish delights for you to try today.

Delicious Turkish Dishes You Don’t Want to Miss Out

  • Keşkek

A delicious dish that is considered a valuable part of Turkey’s influential heritage. It is prepared by cooking meat and cracked wheat together for a while before the butter joins in. Commonly served at weddings, this delicious food warms you inside. Chickpeas and chicken sometimes accompany this dish.

  • Taratorlu Piyaz

A twist is added to the usual bean salad by including sesame paste to the existing onion, beans, and sumac combo. In addition, tomatoes, green onion, and eggs are sometimes included in the dish. Although bean salad is served as a side dish, others prefer having tarator bean salad with shish kebab or a meal on its own.

  • Baba Ghanoush

Originated from Eastern Mediterranean, it is a dish made from mixing mashed aubergine and lemon, garlic, olive oil, and yogurt. Fresh pepper and sesame paste are sometimes added for more flavor. It is considered as one of the most famous summer aubergine dips.

  • Shish Kofte

This dish is just one of the many meatball dishes found in Turkish cuisine. And because this is a popular favorite, every region has come up with varieties. A meatball shish is made by combining ground meat with different herbs and spices before putting it in a skewer to grill. Some recipes include garlic, onion, egg, and breadcrumbs.

  • Tandır Kebabı

Also known as tandoor kebab made from extra fatty lamb cut close to the bone, covering only with salt to taste, and then cooked in a special oven or underground for a long time. It is traditionally served with either a thin, soft piece of lavaş bread or pilaf. The meat has a notable aroma, and it is crispy on the outside but actually melts like butter in your mouth.

  • Hibeş

In Turkish cuisine, this dish is commonly used as a sauce and a starter. The base is made from sesame paste, an important inclusion in the diet in most coastal areas. Starting by thinning the paste with water and then seasoning with garlic, paprika, cumin, and lemon juice is made. The finished product is similar to the consistency of mustard. It can be used as a spread on a slice of bread or eat as a side dish and a meat dish.

With so much to try for Turkish food, this is only a sneak peek at what offers they have left that deserve deeper attention.
