What is Fellah Köfte with Oil and Tomato Paste?
Fellah köfte with oil and tomato paste comes from southern Turkey, especially the Çukurova region. Small dumplings are shaped from fine bulgur mixed with semolina and flour, boiled, then tossed in an oily tomato-paste sauce, often flavoured with garlic. They are tender with a little bite, and the tangy, savoury sauce clings to each piece. In Turkey they may be served as a meze or alongside a main dish, and they also make a satisfying home-cooked lunch or supper. The dish is mainly a source of carbohydrates, with fibre from the bulgur and some protein. Use a lighter hand with the oil and add parsley or lemon for a fresher finish.
