Refika's Epic Hammered Beef
Servings: 4-6
Difficulty: Medium
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cooking time: 5 minutes
400 gr (0,8 lb.) beef fillet steak
4 cloves of garlic, peeled
2 sprigs of rosemary
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
8 tablespoons olive oil
200 gr (7 oz) kolot a Turkish melting cheese (You can substitute mozzarella or any fresh cheese that melts easily instead.)
2 dried hot chilli peppers (Hot chilli flakes are also fine.)
1 teaspoon black peppercorns (whole)
1 teaspoon salt
• For an easier cut, leave the steak in the freezer for about 30 minutes.
• For the marinade, start by crushing the black pepper in a mortar. If you want to add more flavour to your pepper, try using different coloured peppercorns.
• Add the garlic and salt and crush them.
• Add 2 sprigs of rosemary and continue crushing. It is important not to use a knife or scissors to cut the rosemary to prevent a bitter taste. Spare some rosemary for the topping.
• Add 6 tablespoons of olive oil and the white wine vinegar. Vinegar helps tenderize the meat quicker.
• Slice 2 dried chilli peppers and add to the marinade. Set some aside for the topping.
• Take the meat out of the freezer, slice it thinly and then place the slices in a plastic bag and beat them. You can cut 2 edges of the plastic bag to place the meat in it easily. To flatten the meat as much as possible, slide the mallet each time you beat the meat. If you don’t have a flat meat mallet, you can always use a small, thick-bottomed pan for the same purpose. Make sure to use the scraps too. They will surprise you with their size once beaten.
• Cover the bottom of a plate with the marinade and place the slices on it. Make sure that both sides of every slice are well-soaked in the marinade.
• Cover the plate with a plastic bag and wait 10-15 minutes.
• Slice 200 gr of kolot cheese (or your replacement) thinly with a peeler. Bear in mind that cheese just taken out of the refrigerator is always easier to slice.
• Place a large, copper pan on high heat. Copper or enamel pans are preferable as they cool down very quickly after turning the heat off so the meat doesn’t become overcooked and dry.
• Cover the bottom of the pan with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, cook for about 1 minute and flip the meat. If you prefer medium-rare cooked meat, you don’t need to flip the meat.
• Place the sliced cheese over the meat and sprinkle with red pepper, rosemary, and black pepper.

• Put the lid on the pan and cook for another minute.
• Your epic cheesy beef dish is ready to enjoy! Dipping into it with your lavash is highly recommended and if you have guests, take the lid off the pan in front of them for show.
For the tips and lavash recipe, please check the comments!

    Ah Refika, you have sunshine in your soul. All your videos are good, but this may be my favourite. Reminds me of some of the deceptively simple dishes we used to enjoy when coming down from climbing in the mountains to the small villages below. With all the rosemary it's almost more central Mediterainian than some of the other more spice heavy dishes in other parts of Turkey. But juicy and filled with flavour with the wonderful lavash to mop up the precious juices. Would be heaven to return to Turkey some day and if I could I'd love to eat some of the wonderful food you prepare.

    Thank you for emphasizing the importance of using the correct equipment. It makes all the difference in having a recipe turn out the way it is meant to be. I had a cookware shop & cooking school. People thought I sold cookware, bakeware, knives, cooking utinsils, etc, just to increase sales, but no. Many of the recipies we taught in the cooking school really couldn't be made without the appropriate cookware. The equipment - literally - makes the food. Substitutions for some of the traditional kitchenware Is possible, and I'm so glad you give suggestions. What you do so well is show substitutions that actually DO what original equipment accomplishes. You also explain WHY it is an ok alternative - as well as what not to use, and why. Everything about your show is well done. All your information is interesting, but simple to understand. You obviously know your way around a kitchen! Your presentation is delightful. 5 ⭐!

Sometimes I wonder why my bread comes out hard and 'gummy' even if I don't change the recipe ingredients so it's really nice to learn why that happens. Really, really love the way you teach and how you explain all the 'whys' and 'hows' in detail as opposed to simply saying a step and moving on. Also amazing is that I'm learning fundamentals of flatbread making in a recipe video that also tells me what dish to best use them 😊 Thank you so much Refika! Love your videos! 💚

    I made this recipe twice. And it's absolutely delicious. My husband travelled a lot to Turkey in past years and he loved the food. I promise that one day I too will visit. I am a baker and love to cook. I have cooked many types of breads over the years, and with the pandemic now in NY, we are using cooking a new recipe every day to keep our life exciting. I too grow a garden in the back of my house, so most of my produce I tend to try out new recipes. Our lives look so similar in the way we enjoy food. Thanks for the good videos and the enjoyment you bring to the kitchen.

    Lavash 250 g (1,5 cup + 1 tbsp) plain flour 125 g (½ cup) water 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 teaspoon salt • Mix the flour, olive oil, salt and water and knead the mixture for 6-7 minutes. • Divide the dough into 5 equal pieces and shape them into balls. To get the perfect ball shape, place the dough on one hand and with the other, make a dome shape and pressing the dough, roll it between your hands. Cover the dough balls with a damp cloth and let them sit for 5 minutes. • While waiting for the dough, place your cast iron pan upside down on the heater and turn the heat on. Instead of cast iron, a thick-bottomed steel pan works just as well. • To roll out the dough, dust your work surface, rolling pin and the dough with flour. Gently roll out the dough to around 20-25 cm. For a perfect round shape, flip and rotate the dough each time you roll it out. Then, remove any excess flour. • Place the dough in the pan and cook until it becomes partially brown. Watch the heat - if your pan is too hot, your bread might burn and if your pan is not hot enough, it will dry out. • Piling the lavash on top of each other will keep them warm and prevent drying. You can butter each one as well. • Enjoy the lavash with your loved ones! Important Tips • For an easier cut, keep the meat in the freezer for about 30 minutes. • It is important not to use a knife or scissors to cut the rosemary to prevent the bitter taste. • Beat the meat slices in a plastic bag. You can cut 2 edges of the plastic bag to place the meat in it easily. Plastic bag will also prevent the meat to stick to work surface. • For the meat to get bigger, slide the meat mallet each time you hit the meat • If you don’t have a flat meat mallet, you can always use a small, thick-bottomed pan for the same purpose. • Make sure that the leftover meat pieces are also used. They will surprise you with their sizes ones beaten. • Keep in mind that cheese just taken out of the refrigerator is always easier to slice. • Copper or enamel pans are preferable as such materials cool down very quickly after turning the heat off so the meat doesn’t get overcooked and dry. • To get the perfect ball shape, place the dough on your one hand and with the other, make a dome shape and pressing the dough, roll it between your hands. • For a perfect round shape for the lavash, flip and rotate the dough each time you roll it out. • If your pan is too hot, your bread is might get burned and if your pan is not heated enough your bread will dry out until it gets cooked. • Placing each lavash on another one will keep them warm and prevent drying.

    In fact, Kolot cheese is the main ingredient for another famous dish for breakfast - "Kuymak" or "Mıhlama", which is easily prepared in about 10-15 minutes with corn flour, butter and water. Not sure if Refika had posted that recipe before in this channel but it's a great one, highly recommended. If not, she should so I, as a Turkish grande chef, can learn a substitute for Kolot cause it's a bit costly cheese even in Turkey haha

    @@mrsp6825 as far as I remember, Kolot cheese can be found in A101, which has at least 1 store in every corner of the country. The producer is Kebir or Vakfikebir. I haven't tasted the original Kolot cheese in Trabzon yet so I don't know the original taste for comparison but that Kebir brand should work, in general.
