No matter how popular healthy eating has been lately, we all love fast food deep down. Agree, it’s hard to come up with something more convenient than a hearty and tasty snack that you can grab right on the run. It is especially interesting to try unusual street dishes from other countries. In this article, we will talk about the ten most popular varieties of Turkish fast food, which every tourist should get acquainted with.
1 Kokorech / Kokoreç
Let me introduce - His Majesty Kokorech, the real king of Turkish street food. Kokorech is not a dish for impressionable persons, because it is nothing more than fried offal of dairy lambs wrapped in lamb intestines. It doesn’t sound very attractive, but the taste ... You can either adore Kokorech or not accept it at all. It is served not in restaurants, but on the streets - in wagons on the roadsides or in small cafes, cooking in front of the client. Huge horizontal skewers spin over the coals, then the finished kokorech is finely chopped with a knife and, together with pepper, tomatoes and spices, put in a crispy white bun or simply on a plate with a side dish. In the "kokorechnaya" on the table you will always find hot pickled peppers or cucumbers. And you need to drink the whole thing with ice ayran or brine. So, if you have nothing against giblets, feel free to find out from a familiar Turk where the most “real” and proven kokokornaya is nearby. You will not regret it.
2 Doner kebab / Doner kebab
Perhaps, doner can compete with kokorech for the first place in the list of street Turkish fast food. Doner originates in the Arab countries, but later this dish made a triumphal procession around the world. In Russia, doner became known as "shawarma", or "shawarma". Doner kebabs are large pieces of lamb, beef or chicken skewered. The skewer rotates around its axis, ensuring uniform frying of meat. Then the chef cuts off thin juicy doner slices with a sharp long knife, which, along with lettuce, fresh tomatoes, onions and sauces, are sent to a plate or half of white bread. Doner kebab wrapped in pita bread or the thinnest yufka dough is called "dyurum". As in the case of kokorech, Turks like to eat doner with spicy pickles and drink traditional ayran. It should be noted that when ordering, the waiter will most likely ask what ingredients you prefer. Therefore, if you do not like mayonnaise, ketchup or, for example, onions, then you can safely say so.
3 Köfte ekmek / Köfte ekmek
Continuing the conversation about meat, one cannot fail to mention the famous small juicy cutlets with spices - kofte, which you can have a snack on the go. "Kofte ekmek" can be translated as "cutlets in bread". Meat balls with vegetables and herbs are placed in a cut half of a fresh roll and sold in all kinds of cafes, as well as from special carts. Such "sellers on wheels" are waiting for all those hungry at the end of a football match at the exit from the stadium, as well as after concerts and festivals.
4 Chi-kofte / Çiğ köfte
"Chi-kofte" in translation means "raw cutlets". Have you lost your appetite? But any real Turk at the sight of small spicy red-brown cutlets wrapped in lettuce leaves and generously poured with lemon will definitely salivate. Classic chi-kofte are made from the most delicate minced veal, finely ground bulgur, onion, tomato and pepper paste, herbs and a wide variety of spices. But the whole point of this dish is that it is not subjected to any heat treatment! The readiness of chi-kofte is achieved by a very long kneading on a special dish with a ribbed bottom. Real masters grind the ingredients for several hours until the mass darkens and a characteristic smell appears. After that, the cutlets are shaped and served with lettuce and lemon. True, there is one “but” here - a dish prepared according to the method described above can now be tried only at the home of a Turkish hostess. A few years ago, Turkey banned the sale of dishes with raw meat, so numerous cafes and trailers with the inscription "Chi-kofte" offer everyone a vegetarian version of cutlets.
5 Nohut pilav / Nohut pilav
When evening lights come on in big cities, carts with nohut pilyav, a pilaf of rice and chickpeas, roll out into the small streets. The seller of this exclusively evening and nighttime street dish will definitely offer to add a little boiled chicken to the crumbly rice. Nohut Pilyav is a salvation for all hungry nightlife lovers or just those who are looking for a hearty and cheap quick bite. The Nohut Pilyava has many admirers – queues always line up next to the carts.
6 Balik ekmek / Balık ekmek
Everyone who has been to Istanbul will certainly remember the most famous local street dish - balyk ekmek (“fish in bread”). The fish caught right here in the Bosporus is grilled right in the painted boats rocking steadily on the water, and then stolen into a traditional bun, adding lettuce, tomato, onion and lemon juice. Voila, a complete fast food dinner is ready! You can taste balyk ekmek in any of the many restaurants on the Eminonu pier.
7 Stuffed mussels / Midye dolma
Dedicated to all seafood lovers - mussels stuffed with rice, which you can try on the crowded streets of cities and embankments. A salesman with a large aluminum tray deftly opens the sink, generously sprinkles it with lemon juice and serves it to you. For those who wish to take the mussels with them, they will be placed in a container along with lemon slices. Stuffed mussels are quite hearty and very popular Turkish street delicacy.
8 Corn / Sut mısır
It's hard to find someone who doesn't love juicy bright yellow corn on the cob. In Turkey, boiled or grilled corn can be bought right on the street. An absolute favorite among all Turkish children is the so-called milk corn in a plastic cup, poured with melted butter, pomegranate or any other sauce of your choice.
9 Roasted chestnuts / Kestane
The main companions of the Turkish winter are definitely roasted chestnuts. It's hard to imagine the cold city streets without the amazing smell coming from the bright three-wheeled carts with these healthy nuts. The seller will fry fresh chestnuts for you on a small burner, and then put them in a small paper bag, with which you can safely go to conquer the Istanbul lanes.
10 Kumpir / Kumpir
Kumpir is another very popular, especially among young people, Turkish street food. Kumpir is a stuffed baked potato. For its preparation, only very large tubers are used - sometimes you can see real potato giants on the sellers' shelves. Potatoes are baked in foil, then cut or cut into two halves, and a piece of butter and grated cheese are placed inside. It is up to you to decide how to fill the kumpir - it can be finely chopped pickled cucumbers, olives, peas, corn, sausage, mayonnaise and ketchup, or all together - the familiar Olivier salad. All the ingredients are presented on the showcase - you just have to poke your finger at the desired filling, and then enjoy the taste while sipping cold ayran.
11 Bonus: Simit / Simit
It would be impossible to complete the list of street fast food without mentioning the most favorite delicacy among Turkish residents of all ages and social status - simit. Simit is a round crispy bagel generously sprinkled with sesame seeds. You can buy simit in any bakery or from "simitchi" - a bagel seller who appears with his cart on the streets of cities along with the first roosters. Hot simit with a glass of black Turkish tea is not only a great way to satisfy your hunger, but also a real symbol of Turkey.
The most popular Top fast food dishes from around the world...Street food in Ukraine. August 30, 2012
Fast food (English fast food - fast food) - a dish prepared for fast food. The Law of Format prescribes that the time between preparation and sale should not exceed ten minutes.

Fast food restaurants are found in almost every country in the world: from America to Japan, from Australia to Iceland.

But in every city there were a lot of eateries and bazaars where they sold all kinds of food. By the way, it was then that the prototype of pizza appeared - a cake made from yeast dough, smeared with olive oil. The Romans also had their own hamburgers. They fried beef cakes and ate them with bread.

Top dishes of Ukrainian fast food
1. Hot dog
A hot dog, also known throughout the world as a hot dog, is a dish known to the general public as American, but not America, but Germany is considered its homeland. A butcher who lives in the city of Frankfurt came up with thin and long hot sausages called Dachshund, which means dachshund in German. Later, a German emigrant brought these sausages to America and already opened his own small business there, selling sausage wrapped in slices of bread on the streets. The business was very successful and the dish became very popular among Americans. Later, instead of ordinary slices of bread, they began to use a hot oblong bun. This unpretentious sandwich received the name hot dog a little later, when at the beginning of the 20th century the American artist Dargan created an illustration for such a popular and beloved dish and, not knowing how to correctly translate the name from German, signed the illustration in English. So the hot sausage in a bun became known as a hot dog.
2. Shawarma
As soon as this oriental dish is not called: both shawarma, and shawarma, and even shuarma. Lavash stuffed with minced meat, often chicken, with the addition of various spices, sauces and salad is very fond of Ukrainians. Turkey is considered the birthplace of shawarma, and there it is called kebab. Previously, finely chopped fried meat with vegetables and salad was wrapped in a thin Arabic flatbread (pita), later, when the kebab reached Armenia and became known as shawarma, the flatbread was replaced with thin pita bread. In this form, this dish reached Ukraine. Of course, the sanitary standards in the shawarma shop leave much to be desired. But despite this, many Ukrainians, at their own peril and risk, have tried this dish of Turkish origin at least once in their lives. By the way, if you do not trust street vendors, you can cook shawarma at home.
3. Cheburek
A pie made of unleavened dough and minced meat, called cheburek, is a dish of Crimean Tatar cuisine in its origin. Surely, when you came to the Crimea, you met more than one pastry shop where they really sell delicious pasties. In the modern recipe, not only minced meat, but also cheese, potatoes, and mushrooms are used as a filling for cheburek. Here, as they say, the taste and color, the main thing is to remember that the cheburek is fried in hot oil, respectively, this dish is fatty and by no means healthy, as well as high-calorie.
4. Baklava
Baklava, a popular confectionery dish in the East, has long been loved by Ukrainians. It is especially popular on the territory of the Crimean peninsula - in summer, honey baklava is sold right on the beaches. The first mention of this sweet dates back to the 15th century, baklava was prepared in 1453 for the Turkish Sultan Fatih by his personal chef and impressed the Sultan so much that he ordered the recipe to be immortalized. Since then, this multi-layered dessert has been prepared at every holiday. Turkish baklava is considered one of the strongest aphrodisiacs. Honey and nuts, which are part of baklava, contain substances necessary for male power. Today there are a huge number of types of baklava. At the mere sight of this sweetness, it is difficult to resist and not taste at least a piece.
5. Pie
The classic pie is considered a traditional Russian dish. One of the most famous dishes has come down to us from ancient times. Remember at least Soviet cartoons, for example, the same Little Red Riding Hood, who carried pies for her grandmother. Apparently, even the wolf knew a lot about Russian cuisine, since he kidnapped a girl with pies. Today, pies are still baked for the holidays, especially since there is a huge variety of their fillings and shapes. However, if you can still taste a pie according to the most exquisite recipe in a restaurant, then on the shelves of "grandmothers" this dish has long turned into street fast food.
6. McDonalds Cheeseburger
In my opinion, in modern society, unfortunately, there are practically no people left who would not at least try a cheeseburger from McDonalds at least once. I myself have many acquaintances who like to often go to "Mac" - as they call it. , consisting of buns, meat, cheese, ketchup, onion and pickled cucumber.
