    Thank you for sharing this Turkish favorite, there are variants in the Levant too. Everyone tweaks recipes acc. to taste. My two tips are; I fry the tomato puree in virgin olive oil with the onion because it is easier on my stomach and takes away the raw taste of puree. You can change up the greens (or replace onions with spring onions too) but do not cut short on the mint. Lastly, serve with a bunch of washed ice lettuce leaves, use the leaves like spoons and bite into it, lovely.

      Bulghur is a Turkish word that means crushed parched wheat. It is the basis of this and many meals. We have been eating it for 4 millenia in Anatolia, so I do dare to contribute my recipe.

    This was a hit at a dinner party I hosted, and now it’s in our regular salad rotation! Super easy to customize (I use a quarter of a sweet onion instead for a more mild taste, and put in more tomato purée)

    I do this with spring onions instead of red onions I think it tastes better that way. I also add some pomegranate syrup and a little bit of red pepper paste. Tomatoes make it watery after a while, so if you're not going to finish it all at once I suggest not to put tomatoes ;) Been making this for 14 years, oh and I'm Turkish :)

    Hello from Istanbul Turkey :) as beautiful as this recipe looks, it is not very traditional Turkish kısır (we call this kısır. Here, couscous is more like a round pasta dish) we usually put loads of herbs especially spring onions, and organic pomegranate syrup is a must. we eat tomatoes, cucumber, fresh rocket, and lettuce as a side. Also we add many many spices such as dried sumac, cumin, mints, even cinnamon sometimes. But I will try your recipe as soon as possible, it looks very fresh and yummy, and also very diet friendly :)

    My husband and I are not fans of tomatoes, but we are trying. We decided to get some baby tomatoes and cut them up into tiny bits. We couldn't taste them at all but still got that nutrition. We're kinda picky about tomatoes, so I'm happy that went well. I was prepared to take them all out!

      Bulgar and couscous are often hidden away in supermarkets. Try the 'world foods' section or where they keep the dried beans.

    • @BlaBlaTalkin
      @BlaBlaTalkin 6 років тому +1

      Actually it does. Bulgur is made of wheat and Couscous is made of cornflower and theres a huge difference in its tastes. Bulgur is usually used in fired and baked dishes like “Kobbeh” in Arabian culture it has a rough grain so you can shape it like balls, while Couscous is used for salads and sweet plates. Although “Tabbouleh” which is considered as salad is made with Bulgur but i dont mind replacing it with Couscous in this matter since Couscous has a milder taste.

  • @eylemkeskin
    @eylemkeskin 10 років тому +10

    Now I'm doing a favor for all you guys and write the original not-inspired recipe of "kısır" ! First of all we don't use couscous we use the finest "bulgur" and it has a measurement of course. If you add a cup of it you need to add two cups of hot boiled water and of course put 2 tbs of tomato paste and 1 tbs of sweet pepper paste into the water so that you can mix them all together. Let them sit for 10-15min meanwhile chop a bunch of parsley and green onions. I personally don't like tomato in it but you can add if you want also I like cucumber and pickles. Add 1/2 cup of virgin olive oil and if you want squeeze some garlic and one lemon in it. Don't forget to add some salt and pepper to taste but that's all. Eat with celery and pomegranate sauce. Bon apetit !

      Arch Beauty I love your tips! I'm going to try them. So the coarse bulgur you mentioned, is that the same type used in tabouli? Also, you mentioned adding celery and pomegranate syrup, is that added into the recipe, or as a garnish? Thanks!

    • @eylemkeskin
      @eylemkeskin 7 років тому +1

      Genevieve you take a celery leaf and put some of your mixture into it and add some pomegranate sauce on top, then roll and eat altogether. Bulgur is actually wheat but you boil the wheat then you dry it. That's how it is produced. It has various sizes depending on the stone grater adjustments. Bigger bulgur is better for rice, the medium ones better for rolls and stuffed peppers, the smaller ones are best for salads and cig kofte(some type of meatball).

      It's not maily Moroccan.
      It's just north african .
      And algerians have baklava so it's logical if the turks have couscous.

      The way it's prepared, it's like you put Baklawa in a Soup. Couscous dish has a way of preparation, to see it done this way is an insult to Morccan in particular and North African traditions in general.

    Oh my my! I've just done it kerryann... Soooooooooooo tasty O_O !!! I can't believe it !! The only difference is that, because I didn't have tomatoes, cucumbers and lemon next to me, so I added some dry sultanas and come carots (cooked) and the result is MA-GI-CAL !! The tomato purée's tip changes all the couscous !!! Thank U ! LUV U !!!

    This is a great recipe but one change I made on the advice of my Turkish neighbor was to fry the onion with the tomato puree first on a low heat for around 10 minutes (& allow to cool before mixing with other ingredients) as it not only makes it slightly sweeter but it also takes the over powering taste out of the onion & bitter/richness out of the tomato puree - I tried it and it did actually taste better (I also added a little garlic when frying them too).

    Looks fantastic, But can I give you some advise? I have been a hair stylist for years and have watched black women and Amish women go bald at an early age from the tight braids or just pulling so tightly back. Give yourself some long bangs and frame your beautiful face with some softness.

    and you should try it with some pomegranate syrup, it also tastes very good:)
