A traditional delicacy made by cooling boiled lamb's head, slicing it thinly, and serving it as a cold appetizer plate with a garlicky lemon sauce. After a long but simple cooking process, a plain yet filling dish emerges.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Boil the head

150 min

Boil the cleaned head together with onion and bay leaf for about 2.5 hours, until the meat reaches a consistency where it separates easily from the bone.

2

Cool and pick clean

20 min

Let the boiled head cool until warm, then carefully separate the meat from the bones.

3

Slice and arrange

10 min

Thinly slice the picked meat and arrange it on a serving plate.

4

Serve with sauce

5 min

Mix the crushed garlic with lemon juice and red pepper flakes, then drizzle it over the top and serve cold.

Reminder

Important: After boiling the head, let it rest until lukewarm so the meat separates easily, don't try to pick it apart while hot. Caution: skim the foam regularly from the boiling water, otherwise the taste and appearance will suffer.

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

If you chill the sliced meat in the refrigerator for a few minutes before serving, the sauce settles in better and the plate looks fresher.
