LOL I love the fact that the abesslang comes directly from french abaisse-langue which translates to tongue lowerer

Just came back from a week-long trip in Istanbul with my dad! It was the most magical experience, thank you for introducing me to Turkish cuisine!!

Hi from Tennessee. That really looks absolutely delicious. Thanks for sharing. I hope you all have an absolutely fabulous New Year.

Fun fact (for me at least) Abeslang in french it's called "abaisse langue" (sounding the same) . It can be trantslated "tongue pusher". Thank you Refika for all those years of great recipes. Hopping for more to come. Happy new year everybody.

Oh that’s very kind of you to share your thougts with us… it’s great to hear from you guys here in the comments that’s how we connect and share with each other. Wish you a happy new year, lots of love! 😍

Refika! I love your channel and your recipe's. I watch it regularly but never commented. I would definitely make those kebabs. They look absolutely amazing! I wanted to say that I love how you use and call the bowl with lid hammam! I would definitely add this expression to my cooking vocabulary! It's genius! Love it! 😅❤

May God richly blessed you in the new year, and all of your families!

Refika thank you and your family for sharing all of these recipes. I just discovered you I believe from God. I live in the United States of America and I have been working on growing a fruit orchard, I'm wanting to expand to nut trees and that is where you came in. I was exploring pistachios and Turkey is 1 of the top producers of them. Your video on making Helva came out of it. You have a great presence in the kitchen and God has blessed you. Thank you for gifting others with that. Take care Refika I give you blessings.

Mutlu yıllar! 🎉🍽 May you whip up even more delightful recipes to leave the world craving your culinary creativity! 🌟🍴

What an amazing Inspiration! And such a beautyfull platter! A prosper & peacefull 2024 to us all 🎉

Happy New Year to you and your very lovely friends in your videos, watching from Toronto Canada

My mouth is watering. Literally.

This video had all my favourite ingredients 🤩. I'm a big sucker for Aubergines& peanuts. And, being a cook from Delhi kebabs are my hot favourite ❤. I guess 2023 ended on a delicious note. Thank you🙏

I’m drooling here. That looks so delicious.

I'll have to do this peanut free.

Happy new year. May your channel continually grow and i declare good health and tremendous success to all of you. I cant believe its been a year since i found your channel. Your contents always brings me happiness and comfort. ❤❤❤😊😊🎉🎉

Thank you for the inspiration!

Happy new year for you and your entire team from Germany. We are looking forward to 2024 and new inspiration from your blog…we are in love with the turkish cuisine and especially your wonderful recipes ❤️❤️

Burak is so gentle, what a charming man :)

Great recipe. I can totally feel the smoke. I just burned popcorn by accident before watching this video. Fortunately, I caught it before the smoke detector went off, but it was a close call.

Delicious happy New Year’s 🎊🎉❤️

That looks so delicious 😋 Happy New Year!!

I had DEJAVU when I saw you. I'm in Canada, but I think we'd be great friends. ❤ Michele

You are amazing. Thank you from Spain

These are the kind of kebabs Ghanians made too Love I ngd and cooked at a Mediterranean restaurant in Juanita We made kebabs I had about 50 kebab things Someone took all but 5

Happy new years 🎄🪬

We call the shish you're using a tongue depressor. Also, could you use a tablespoon or two of peanut butter with the mixture. The end result is a very beautiful dish. I'm intrigued by the onion, parsley and sumac salad, do you add any type of vinegar or oil?

She divided peanuts in 2 parts, 1 coarse big chunks, and the other part, she ground so finely, it became paste like (peanut butter like)

Normally, no vinegar as the sumac is already a little tart. You could put oil if you like but your kebab should be quite fatty already so adding more fat may defeat the purpose of the salad which is to brighten and lighten the kebab.

I like your butcher screens, that's a nice touch.

Happy New Year 🎉

I love your channel so much happy delicious food ideas. Can you make a Palestinian dish called Musakhan chicken with your wonderful flat thin Turkish bread? Sumak onions olive oil lemon bread and lots of love? I would love to see what you can do with it. Keep up making us yummy food. Love from Montreal ❤

In the US, we call those sticks "tongue depressors" (literally, "a stick to hold the tongue downward").

I love peanuts, never saw an Adana Kebab with peanuts, thanks for the recipe Refika and all the team. I would spread a pinch of peanut butter on the lavash 🙂

Hey Refika hanim... Wish you a very happy new year.. I am from India...I just want to tell you that i am a die hard fan of your recipes.. Love your videos and the way you present them... I am a vegetarian though..still watch all your recipes and try to make it with a vegetarian replacement... And trust me whenever I throw a party I always keep at least one of your recipes for dinner...and they are an absolute hit❤❤... Lots of love and success your way... May you always shine⭐✨

We call them, ice cream stick, in india, use them in various varieties of kababs, known as kulfi (type of traditional ice cream) kabab, popsicle kabab, kandi( stick) kabab. List goes on.

Hahah “why have abs” I love that!

Love love your recipe, and the fun you add to your cooking. What is the grill your using? I live in New york, its not on your amazon store.❤

Happy new year from bangladesh.

Hi Refika,( from Philippines)

Wooowww 😍😍

❤❤❤

It's better if I refrigerator the meat after adding the ingredients for like 2 or 3 hours Before I'd use it in a Flat iron Skewers on the right heat, I can flip them after every 3 or 5 minutes

awesome recipe CHEF , please show ezmeli kebap and kuzu tandir recipe please

@Refika

Just to repeat (it went past quickly) - any time you need to use wood in your cooking (skewers, tongue depressors, etc), soaking them in water first will prevent them from burning. Thanks for the video!

Looks delish! The sticks are called tongue depressors sticks.🤗

Can you bake the vegetables in the oven? What are the differences between an oven and a cast iron pan as you have?

Bahar, you don't know what you're missing! Honestly, doesn't that make you want it?😉 I wish you all a happy new year and very good health.🎉

Abselang ? Is that from the french : Abaisse-langue ?

Dear Refika, I made menemen to my friends over here following your recipe, and guess what! They licked their fingers 😂

If i make this at home it may be the best kebab my son will ever have, but maybe also his last one. So I will not be able to make this one😢 when hé is around. (Peanut allergie) is there any nut we can substitute with? Maybe almonds?

Any meat replacement for vegetarians folks

in the US those are called "tongue depressers," which is probably the worst name ever. I hope nobody calls my food a "tongue depresser."
