🥄 Ingredients
- 1 kg 30% fat lamb, finely minced
- 2 tomatoes
- 1/2 bunch parsley (approximately 100 g)
- 2 tablespoons red pepper paste
- 1/2 bunch fresh mint (approximately 50 g)
- 2 small onions, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon seven-spice mix
👩🍳 Instructions
- The dough is the same as the dough for the bird's nest with pomegranate molasses, but as for mixing the meat, put all the ingredients in the minced meat on the smooth side all at once.
✨ Chef's Secret
You can use ready-made phyllo dough or baklava from the market, but it cannot give you the same result as homemade puff pastry dough made by hand. Try both and decide for the future of the bird's nest.
🌹 Decoration
Line a serving dish with lettuce, cucumber, and tomato, then arrange the bird's nest in the center. You can also prepare a cucumber and yogurt side dish or ayran (a yogurt drink). Bird's nest generally pairs well with vegetables such as watercress, green onions, and hot green peppers.
