- 2 cups fine bulgur
- 2 onions
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1 large, ripe tomato
- 2 Tbsp tomato paste
- 2 Tbsp red pepper paste
- 3 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 Tbsp Turkish isot
- 1 tsp paprika powder
- 1 tsp sumac
- 1 tsp dried mint
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- Handful parsley, finely chopped
- Salt to taste
Directions:
1) Place the peeled tomato in a food processor and puree
2) Rinse the bulgur under cold water in a wire strainer for a few minutes. Drain it and put it in a large mixing bowl along with the tomato puree. Mix together well, cover the bowl and set it aside for about 1 hour until the bulgur is softened
3) Peel and coarsely chop the onions and garlic and put them in the food processor
4) Add this mixture to the tomato and bulgur along with the rest of the ingredients. Wearing rubber gloves, knead the mixture until all the ingredients are well combined
5) Divide the mixture into portions small enough to fit inside the food processor. Process each portion on medium speed until smooth. Combine all the processed portions together in a large bowl and continue to knead until all has a smooth consistency
6) Cover the bowl with an airtight seal and set aside for at least five hours
7) Break off bite-sized pieces of the mixture and shape them into the fingerprint shapes as shown in the photo above. Arrange them on a serving plate with leaves of lettuce and slices of fresh lemon for squeezing
