Çiğ Köfte Sushi Recipe

Çiğ Köfte Sushi Recipe

Çiğ köfte sushi or sushi çiğ köfte is a new generation fast food that has become very popular in Turkey recently. In essence, it is just çiğ köfte; it has no connection with sushi in terms of ingredients. What makes the dish called sushi is its appearance. Çiğ köfte is spread on lavash bread and wrapped in a roll shape, with different ingredients placed in the middle. This makes the çiğ köfte look like sushi.

From time to time, the rolls are covered in spicy nahos chips, parsley or ingredients such as hazelnuts and walnuts. I made two different varieties. I put chopped iceberg lettuce and grated carrots in one of them and covered it with spicy nachos chips that I crushed into crumbs in a plastic bag. I put crushed chips in the middle of the other one and coated the outside with chopped parsley.

Since it was very popular on social media and people who tasted it gave extreme reactions, I prepared it without thinking about it, assuming that it would go well with çiğ köfte and be very delicious, but I was a little disappointed. Yes, wrapping çiğ köfte in lavash like sushi looks very nice. This does not contribute positively or negatively to its taste anyway. That wonderful çiğ köfte taste you know remains in its place. But chips don't help anything. In fact, in my opinion, it would be better if it was made without chips. But since it is so popular, it means there are people who like it.

By the way, I have a çiğ köfte recipe that everyone has loved for years. Its taste is truly wonderful. But since the ingredients list is a bit long, it's a bit of a hands-on recipe. I created a simpler recipe for this çiğ köfte sushi. I am quite satisfied, but your opinions are very important to me. So I would appreciate it if you could give me feedback after trying it.

I used the lavash recipe for lavash. I baked it by rolling it into a rectangular shape, not a round one, just to make it easier to wrap.

If you do not consume gluten, you can make it using gluten-free çiğ köfte and gluten-free tortilla recipes.

Since lavash gets wet with the effect of çiğ köfte and pomegranate syrup, it should be consumed shortly after making sushi rolls. If you are going to consume çiğ köfte some time after preparing them, I recommend that you do the wrapping process just before eating.

Enjoy your meal...
