Instructions
- 1
Moisten the fine brown bulgur with half a cup of hot water and let it swell for 10 minutes.
10 min10:00 - 2
Mash the boiled potatoes, grate the onion, and squeeze out a little of its juice.
- 3
Knead the bulgur, minced beef, potatoes, onion, tomato paste, isot, red pepper flakes, black pepper, and salt for 12 minutes.
12 min12:00 - 4
Rest the mixture for 20 minutes so the bulgur and beef bind together.
20 min20:00 - 5
Divide the mixture into pieces larger than walnuts and shape them in your palm into oval flat patties.
- 6
Heat the vegetable oil over medium heat and cook the patties for 10 minutes, until both sides are browned.
10 min10:00 - 7
Transfer the patties to paper towels, drain excess oil, and serve hot.
💡 Tip: If the mixture cracks in your palm, wet your hand with water; rather than adding extra water, let the bulgur swell for 10 more minutes.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve as an Urfa kofte plate with bostana salad, lemon wedges, and ayran if desired.
