In the recent posts, I discussed about lifestyle and healthy foods. Today I want to introduce one of the tasty and traditional Azerbaijani food. This food, called the "Tabriz kuftesi", is rich in protein and natural antioxidants which can protect you from diseases.

"Tabriz Kuftesi" is one of the most famous menus in Azerbaijan. As its name implies, this food belongs to the city of Tabriz. In different parts of the Middle East, it is cooked, but what makes it different from them is the raw material and the way in which it is made. The way it is traditionally provided is as follows. In this meal, aromatic vegetables are used.
The meat is sliced in a Copper mortar and then vegetables and other ingredients are added.

In the following, we will explain to you the way in which it will be supplied with the materials you need.

Okay, How to prepare "Tabriz Kuftesi" for 6 people.

Grind the resulting mixture by mincer. Then add eggs and half other meat to the ingredients, along with vegetables, Chickpea flour, salt, pepper and cinnamon and mix well.
For convenience, put a lace in the bowl. If you are a professional chef, you can do it without a lace. Then pour a portion of the mixture made from the previous step into the bowl and then, Inside it, add a batch of egg cooked, a little-fried onion, a few plums, and a little walnut and barberries.
