250 gr minced meat (you can use beef, lamb or mutton, whichever you like is fine)
1 small onion, halved
4 handfuls of bread crumb, crusts removed, (alternatively, 4 slices of bread works great as well)
1/2 teaspoon baking soda or baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon butter (skip butter if your meat is fatty)
To garnish:
Tomato
Pepper
Yogurt
2-3 Pide (or any kind of flatbread)
1 teaspoon butter
1 cup hot water
• To prepare the köfte, add the bread crumb or slices and onion in a food processor and pulse for 30 seconds.
• Add in the minced meat, baking soda, butter, salt and black pepper. Continue to pulse until it becomes a paste.
• Wet your hands and shape the mixture into flat round patties. Press your fingers on each patty to increase the surface area. More surface area means more maillard reaction and it means more flavour!
• Heat a cast iron pan and place six patties in it and cook on medium heat.
• Flip every Köfte several times while cooking. Add the tomatoes and peppers into the pan.
• While they are cooking mix the butter with hot water and score the flat bread.
• Remove the köfte from heat and pour the half of the water and butter mixture in the pan. Right after, put in the bread as well. This way, bread will soak up the all the flavours and become more and more tasty. Repeat the same for the other patties.
• Place the bread in a dish and serve the köfte on it. Enjoy your amazing köfte with pickles or yogurt

hahah me too😂
I made this last weekend for a group of friends and neighbors. There wasn’t a scrap of food left. Your channel has made me the hero of every weekend meal with my friends. Thank you for adding so much flavor to my life.❤
Refika, not only are your recipes extremely delicious and really fast - which is the only recipes I look for, but you are a wonderful person! You are authentic, I love your humor and the people's around you and also how you don't need to present a perfect show. You sometimes might use vegetables that are a bit oldish which shows how a real kitchen works. I love your English and I love when some bloopers happen. You give us many substitutes for the ingredients and the explanations for why you use the different techniques is extremely helpful. I have tried some of your recipes and they are out of this world. I sometimes watch your recipes for my relaxation but I get too excited 😁 Thank you so much for sharing your character and food with us!!! I am Cypriot and they taught us at school that Turks are our enemies. I will plaster your face all over our schools. And then this will end! You are the face of a real loving human 💕
People are not enemies because of some political situations. Countries, may be. But absolutely not people. They tried to make us believe we are, for hundreds of years but we shouldn't buy it anymore..
I am a Turk, and I have no reason to hate you. Because I don't know you, so you can't be my enemy. I only know you are a human being like me, you have feelings; joy, sadness, fear, anger and you have regrets you have "what if"s in life, just like me.. I have no idea who you are but I can understand you.
Hate is never an easy thing, but understanding is. We all need to remember this.
Also ı wanna add,,, realy believe me,, in turkey we have no any special hate sentences in education system,,,
Only history lessons explain,,,
Britain, France, italy, Greece attacked us in 1918-9 and we kicked them out,,, nothing personal about british, French, italian or greek People,,,,
Nothing more related with citizens
Yessss indeed to all you’ve written about dear Refikaaa🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Gosh you know, we were also taught in Soviet films that Germans = Nazis...when I met some Germans in EU or USA it totally changed my mind! Wacko politicians Must never speak on behalf of the population...
Refika is also from Cyprus if I am not wrong.
malezya'da yasiyorum, burada hintli arkadaslarim da cok seviyor senin kanalini ve baya baya tariflerini yapiyorlar :) . yasa varol. eline saglik.
Hello I'm from Serbia. We call that "Ćufte" and we cook them in tomato soup. Well ,we spent 500 year's under Turkish command, so we gotta have familiar names for food. Kebab- Ćevap, džezva- pot for cooking coffee, budala- crazy man, baba-old women, đevrek - pastry with "susam " ⭕ shape. Susam- sesame. Aman- it means a lot of thing" cut it out, stop, it's enough, it's to much" approximately 8000-10 000 Turkish words in our language. 🙂.
i visited Serbia in February for erasmus project. I went to Belgrade, Bečej, Subotica and Novi Sad. I love your culture, buildings, people, atmosphere and similarities. lots of love from Istanbul, Turkey ❤
I'm surprised you'd use the word "Aman" and I thought I wouldn't hear it anywhere else. That's very nice to hear☺️
@@rebellefleur2993 Aman is used in all of Balkan region - Bulgaria, Macedonia, Montenegro and so on.
@@hasanemretuncel1102 glad you had a good and quality time 👌🤝 in my country. I hope to visit Istanbul one day and return you a compliment of that great city.🙏🏿
@@DessyGeorg ı guess haydi or hayde also
I had breakfast at 10.00 today. I've had nothing since and it's now 18.10.
The koftes were wonderful, but I thought the way you did that bread was absolutely gorgeous.
This lot made me drool. My stomach is making a hell of a racket.
Oh, that Bread....there will be a piece on my plate tonight.
Hi there... I am not an English speaker but... The saliva pouring out of your mouth when you see food, isn't that called slobbering??
@@guillermija nope, it's drooling
@@guillermija Well both as wet....lol! The difference between Drool and Slobber. ... When used as verbs, drool means to secrete saliva, especially in anticipation of food, whereas slobber means to allow saliva or liquid to run from one's mouth...you could say your dog gave you a slobbering kiss, or the man was a , slack mouth, slobbering idiot with no table manners.
That bread! I would love to know what type it is.
I would LOVE the recipe for that bread as well! I love Turkish cuisine and particularly the chewy bread soaking up all the juice from delicious köfte.
I will definately try this, looks sooooo good and so simple to make. Have a great weekend from Toronto Canada.
My mom is German and Scottish and I grew up eating Kofte. My mom just called it meatballs and my great great great grandmother taught her. Its amazing how one simple food can spread so wide among countries. I'm glad it did. Everyone must try this! Oh your beat hummus recipe ( AMAZING )Thanks for sharing.
Since you did a colab with Alex @frenchguycooking I cannot get enough of you Refika. You act like a bridge between Turkish cuisine and us, bringing all the goodness here on your channel for us to enjoy and of course, try and replicate. I also visited Istanbul a few times in the past years and fell in love with the food there, it's simply mind blowing and cannot describe in words the experience. Keep up the good job and maybe in the future you can surprise us with some deserts recipes a la Haviz Mustafa style 😁
Big love from Romania and be safe you guys!

Resonance.
In my garden I grow a lot of peperoni and chilis (among them turkish ones : acı sivri kil, çarliston, acı dolma). I prepare a lot of preserved sauces, also turşu, jams. I also dry peperoni slices and chop it in small flakes. These flakes are a super great ingredient in köfte, because while the meat+onion+bread is resting overnight they re-moisture with the mixture's liquids and don't bring extra water, but a nefiiiiis summery flavor! Other tip : very often in the Balkans they let rest for a couple of hours crushed garlic in a small amount of water, filter and add only the water into the köfte mixture. It brings an extra flavour without risking to have a burnt garlic taste (which might occur if you put chopped garlic into the mixture).
Wow thank you for sharing these tips !
The garlic tip is brilliant!
I am a Cuban girl, and love your food! Thanks for sharing with the world your rich food! We really appreciate it! ..Love your culture! and your personality !...
So in love with the soaking of the bread in butter😍😍😍omg
I made these with moose meat and they were incredibly moist and delicious, something that doesn't always happen with moose as it is a very lean wild meat. Now I need to write the recipe out into my recipe book to keep forever! Cheers, lady 🇨🇦

This is the first time I am commenting on youtube and I felt the need to do so because of the amazing results I had with this recipe. The result was a mind boggling and delicious dish that my entire family enjoyed tremendously. I've been watching a lot of recipes and loving each and every one of them. Keep up the great work Refika. You have a solid fan base in Pakistan.
The hummus and tahini I made using your recipes turned out very well and I have converted my husband to liking hummus. I will now try the kofte,, it looks so appetising. Thank you, Refika, I love your channel!
I love your recipes, love your personality and love learning about your country and seeing the videos of Turkey. More of everything please.

my first taste of this meatball was when I was part of a tour group offered by Turkish Airline during my 9 hours layover in Istanbul in 2016, between the Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque, they took us to lunch with your meatballs. I was expecting Italian meatball with sub, lol but so glad I had tasted real Turkish meatballs.

Looks so good!
I tried this recipe and we loved it, so tasty and easy! Thank you
In Russian this is “kotleta” served with mash potato & gherkins. I always thought it originated from France but turns out all best things come from Turkey! Also sometimes raw potato is added into mixture ( this explains everything : starch from potato acts like baking soda).
Wonderful. I am hungry to make this and try it for my self!
You and your food are just fabulous!! Sending love from the UK!
Thanks a lot for the recipe. Will try soon.
Health for your hands 😉
Wonderful. Tastes great. Is even eaten by my two year old. Thanks for sharing your recipes, your love and your laughter.
