Ingredients

Tick off ingredients as you go.

  • 400g Mince Turkey
  • 80g Spring Onion
  • 3 large tbsp Turmeric
  • 2 tbsp Sumac (+ more for serving)
  • 4 large tsp Tomato Puree
  • 2 tsp Salt

How to make it

Allow about 5–7 minutes to prepare. Cooking takes 30–35 minutes for a 1–2 cm layer; the original range is 30–45 minutes depending on thickness.

  1. Prepare the oven and onions

    Preheat the oven to 170°C. Chop the spring onions into very small pieces.

  2. Mix

    Thoroughly mix the turkey mince, spring onions, turmeric, tomato purée, sumac and salt in the bowl.

  3. Fill the tray

    Spread the mixture in the baking tray to an even thickness.

  4. Bake

    Place in the centre of the preheated oven. A 1–2 cm layer takes about 30–35 minutes; thicker kebabs take longer, within the original 30–45-minute guidance. Adjust the timing for thickness.

  5. Finish and serve

    Sprinkle more sumac over the cooked kebab, cut it into strips and serve with rice.
