MERCIMEK KöFTESI TURKISH RED LENTIL KOFTE (VEGAN)



Mercimek Köftesi Turkish Red Lentil Kofte (Vegan) image

I got this from the Almost Turkish food blog, looks yummy! I looove red lentils though I'll probably cheat and use rice, kasha, or barley since I tend to not keep bulgur around heh. This is a completely dairy-free recipe that is both vegan and kosher. I guess any kind of onion would work but I imagine a tangy red onion would compliment the lentils well, or sweet yellow for a nice complex flavor, but white will work just fine.

Categories     Lentil

Time 55m

Yield 7 koftes, 7 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup red lentil
2 cups water
1/2 cup fine bulgur
1 teaspoon sea salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 teaspoon cumin
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 -2 teaspoon lemon juice (juice of half or whole lemon to your taste)
2 -3 tablespoons fresh parsley (approx, divided)
1/4 cup green onion, chopped (about 4-5 green onions, white parts cut off)
7 curly lettuce leaves (like whole romaine or Boston, need nice big ones)

Steps:

  • Boil the lentils in the water, uncovered, until they soak up most of the water, about 25-30 minutes.
  • Add the bulgar and salt. Mix once and loosely cover to let the bulgar expand, then remove from the heat and let rest on a potholder about 10 minutes to let it cool off.
  • Heat the olive oil in a frying pan and add the chopped onion and cook until soft, about 10-15 minutes.
  • Add the tomato paste and cook another 1-2 minutes.
  • Add the cumin and remove pan from heat. Stir once the heat is off.
  • Add the onion-tomato paste-cumin mixture to the pot with lentils and bulgar, which should be cool by now. Add a few shakes of cayenne pepper to heat it up if you like.
  • Add half of your parsley (about 1-1.5 tablespoons worth), the green onions, and lemon juice to the pot, and mix well.
  • Take pieces of the kofte out of the pot and form them into kofte shape. The same size and shape as a Twinkie works, though traditional kofte is about half the size of a Twinkie.
  • You can then arrange the lettuce leaves on a big plate and serve that way, but the real deal way to eat them is wrapping each kofte up in a lettuce leaf.
