Shish kofta

Shish kofta before being grilled

Shish kofta (‏şiş köfte‎)[1] (Turkish)[2][3] is a type of kebab-style kofta dish in Turkish cuisine.

The dish consists of minced lamb, mutton, veal or beef, or a mixture of these meats mixed with herbs, often including parsley and mint, placed on a şiş (skewer) and grilled. It is typically served with pilav (Turkish-style rice or bulgur wheat) and salad.

There are several regional variations on shish kofta. Tire köfte is made mainly with veal.[4]

The city of Burdur is known for its distinct variant of shish kofta known as Burdur şiş,[5] which is traditionally made with minced goat meat (or more commonly with beef today),[6] with salt but no spices or herbs, and eaten with a special type of pita bread.[7] Burdur şiş was officially recognised as a distinct variant of shish kofta by the Turkish Patent and Trademark Office in 2010.[8]

Shish kofta is also the basis of yoğurtlu kebap (kebab with yogurt).[3][9]
