What is Vegetable kokorec?
Vegetable kokorec is a Turkish street-food variation of kokorec, made by chopping lamb intestines and cooking them on a griddle or grill with vegetables such as peppers and tomatoes. The mixture is seasoned with spices as it cooks, giving it a savoury, aromatic flavour.
It is usually served in bread, wrapped as a dürüm, or plated, often with pickles or a cool drink. The texture is tender and rich, with browned, slightly crisp edges. It is protein-rich and filling, but also fairly high in fat. For a lighter meal, choose a plate with extra vegetables or salad instead of a large bread roll.
