Turkish Street Food in Berlin | Kokorec

The most popular and authentic Street Food in Turkey is Kokorec - Grilled Lamb Intestines. There is the Original Izmir Kokorec, served fried in Bread. Or the Istanbul Kokorec, which also includes Peppers and Tomatoes. Kokorec is cooked on a horizontal skewer in a Special Grill Oven. It is then chopped up in portions and seared on a hot griddle. The spices are Salt, Pepper, Thyme, Cumin and Hot Paprika Powder. It is eaten both in Bread and on a Plate with Side Dishes as a Main Meal. Kokorec is a Dish mainly from Asia Minor and the Balkans, where it is also called Kokoretsi.
