Provided by Marilena Leavitt

Categories     Main Dish

Time 1h

Yield 4-6

Number Of Ingredients 23

For the meat patties:
1 lb. lean ground meat, ground twice if possible
1 cup grated onion (1 medium)
¼ cup fresh parsley, finely minced
1 tsp. salt
½ tsp. freshly ground pepper
1 tsp. fresh thyme
½ tsp. ground cumin
½ tsp. ground sumac
2 tsps. extra virgin olive oil
1 TBSP. milk
For the tomato sauce:
4 med. ripe tomatoes
1 TBSP. butter
3 med. cloves of garlic, minced
1 tsp. red wine vinegar
1 tsp. sugar
6 TBSP. beef broth
Yogurt & Garnish:
¾ cup Greek yogurt, lightly beaten, at room temp
1 sm. garlic clove, grated (optional)
4 --- Mediterranean-style pita bread (without pockets)
--- --- fresh parsley leaves

Steps:

  • Place the grated onion, parsley, all the seasonings, the olive oil and the milk in a medium bowl and thoroughly mix.
  • To the bowl with the onion mix, add the ground meat and knead thoroughly until very smooth.
  • Cover and refrigerate the bowl with the meat mixture for one to two hours so that it firms up and is easier to handle.
  • Make the tomato sauce: Remove the skins and the seeds of the tomatoes. Chop them and cook them in a medium skillet with the butter. Add the garlic, vinegar and sugar. Once they are slightly reduced, add the beef broth and mix to incorporate.
  • Make a "test" meat patty: Take a small spoonful of the meat mixture, flatten it into a tiny patty and cook in a skillet. Taste and adjust the seasoning of the meat mixture as needed.
  • Shape the meat mixture into small meatballs and flatten them slightly. Heat large, non-stick skillet under medium-high heat. Drizzle enough olive oil to the skillet to cover the bottom. Once the skillet is hot, place the meatballs in, making sure not to overcrowd it. Cook them on both sides until nicely brown.
  • To serve: Toast some pita bread, cut it in wedges and place in individual warm plates. Spoon some warm tomato sauce over the pita, drizzle some room temperature yogurt sauce over the sauce, and arrange some meat patties on the bed of yogurt. Sprinkle with some parsley leaves and serve at once.

WHOLE ROASTED PEPPERS WITH YOGURT AND FRESH TOMATO SAUCE



Whole Roasted Peppers with Yogurt and Fresh Tomato Sauce image

Bell peppers change in color as they ripen from olive, pale, and bright green to vivid yellow and red. The red ones are the ripest and sweetest. In Turkey they are roasted or deep-fried whole and served hot as a first course accompanied with yogurt or with a tomato sauce. There is no need to peel them. A long, pointed, piquant (but not hot) variety is also prepared in the same way.

Yield serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 fleshy bell peppers
2 cups plain whole-milk or thick Greek-style strained yogurt
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1-2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 pounds tomatoes, peeled and chopped
1 tablespoon sugar
Salt
A good pinch of ground chili pepper or flakes
2 tablespoons vinegar

Steps:

  • Put the bell peppers on a piece of foil on a baking sheet and roast in a preheated 350°F oven for 3/4-1 hour, until soft and browned in parts, turning them over once.
  • For the tomato sauce, heat the garlic in the oil, stirring for a few seconds only, until the aroma rises. Add the tomatoes, sugar, salt, and chili pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 20 minutes, until reduced and thick. Add the vinegar towards the end. Serve the peppers whole. Do not peel them. Pass around the yogurt and the tomato sauce for people to help themselves.
  • Mix 1-2 crushed garlic cloves with the yogurt and add a little salt.
  • Small eggplants, one for each person, can be roasted whole at the same time and served with the peppers.
