What is Oil-Free Turkish Cold Cut Meat?

Oil-free Turkish cold cut meat is cooked meat that is chilled and sliced thinly before serving. In Turkey, söğüş is especially associated with İzmir and is traditionally made with cuts such as tongue and cheek from a sheep or lamb’s head; leaner versions use less fatty portions.

It is commonly wrapped in lavash with onion, parsley and spices such as cumin, sumac and chilli. The tender, well-seasoned meat is served cold, often with ayran or pickles alongside. It provides plenty of protein—29.1 g per 100 g—and no carbohydrates. For a lighter meal, serve it with extra salad or greens and use a smaller lavash.
