Stuffed vegetables and leaf rolls
Meaning “Fatima’s fingers”, doigts de Fatima are a classic Tunisian snack made by wrapping a minced-meat filling in yufka (thin Turkish pastry sheets), then frying. Their long, finger-like shape fits neatly into picnic baskets and lunchboxes.
Mix and knead the ground meat thoroughly with grated onion, parsley, egg, cumin, harissa and salt to make an even filling.
Cut each pastry sheet in half. Put a finger-thick line of filling at one end, moisten the edges with water and roll up tightly.
Fry the rolls in plenty of oil over medium heat for 10 minutes, until golden all over. Transfer to paper towels.
Moisten the yufka edges with water and seal them tightly; otherwise, the filling may spill out during frying. Keep the oil at medium heat: if it is too hot, the outside will burn while the inside remains raw. Allergens: contains wheat (gluten) and eggs.
Sarmaları 10 dakikada tam istediğim altın rengine getirdim, yağın orta ısıda kalması gerçekten fark yaratıyor. Piknik için bir gün önceden sarıp buzdolabında bekletmem de sorun olmadı, ertesi gün aynı çıtırlıkta kızardı.
