Crackling thin rounds of hand-rolled dough blanketed with a fiery paste of finely minced lean beef, ripe tomato, red pepper paste and fragrant spices — cooked on a screaming-hot griddle until blistered at the edges, then rolled tightly around peppery rocket leaves and tangy pickled turnip for a street-food experience that is wholly addictive.
Tender grape leaves wrapped around a savory filling of oil-packed tuna, brown rice, bright lemon zest, briny capers, and fresh dill — steamed until silky and served alongside cool, creamy Greek yogurt for dipping. A satisfying, protein-forward mezze that feels elegant yet effortless.
