While in Turkey last year, Somer Siviroglu of Efendy restaurant saw these kebabs in a place called Gaziantep. It is very typical of the region. Here, he shares this traditional recipe with us.Beer match 4 Pines Brewing Company Kolsch, Manly, NSW
I’ve chosen a beer to go with this beautiful kebab recipe… and, no, not because it will remind you of your student days. Both the beer and the kebab here are superior specimens. Beer is a versatile drink match because it can act as a simple refreshment aid and a palate cleanser. That’s what we’re after because the dish has multiple strong, interweaving flavours, so the last thing you need is a drink that tries to compete. The Kolsch from Manly-based 4 Pines is beautifully balanced with citrus notes and finely tuned hop and malt highlights. It’s deliciously refreshing whilst also delivering genuine character – perfect.
