Lentil Kofte Recipe
I have a little note about the recipe. I don't normally use onions in lentil meatballs. But because I was tired of answering the question of whether there is no onion, I wrote the recipe with onions. You can make it with or without onions, it's entirely up to you.
Enjoy the recipe...

- Gabriella: I love your recipes! I am impressed by how many healthy recipes you have. But what I miss the most is going back to Istanbul. It's a magic city! I've been there in my 20s and will never forget it. Turkish people are one of the nicest people you can meet. Greetings from Canada, Gabriella January 11, 2023 10:22 am
