Hi Binnur,

It has been a while since I have visited, this looks fantastic and is a favourite in our family. I sometimes like to add vegetables to this.. like carrots and celery or cauliflower.. always tastes great!! I

It's pleasing to see that you are still doing great work!!

ellerine saglik.

This looks great. It's interesting how you've used rice here - I've always used breadcrumbs for meatballs. I'd bet it tastes great, though.

You can use the recipe of Turkish Hamburger to make meatballs. You may add oregano in Kofte ingredients also.

This looks good. However, i have a question for you Binnur. Which one of your meatball recipes works with pasta? I usually like basil chease, mushrooms or anyother vegetables(not cooked with the meatballs but rather cooked separately)with my pasta. so, i hope whatever meatball recipe you gonna recommend works well with these the above ingredients :)

thank you in advance.
