What is Çiğ köfte without pomegranate sauce?
Çiğ köfte without pomegranate sauce is a southeastern Turkish speciality made by kneading fine bulgur with pepper or tomato paste, isot chilli, onion and spices, served without the customary pomegranate molasses. Although the name literally means “raw meatballs,” the everyday version in Turkey is generally meat-free; older traditional versions used raw meat.
It is savoury, warmly spiced and pleasantly chewy. It is often tucked into lettuce leaves or wrapped in lavash with lemon and fresh herbs, and may be served as part of a shared spread. Bulgur makes it mainly a carbohydrate-based dish, with 6 g of fibre per 100 g. Leaving out the pomegranate sauce gives a less sweet, more direct chilli-and-spice flavour; add plenty of greens for a fresh, lighter wrap.
