Easy for you to say that. :) I am more then three times your weight.
When I say 'I am twice the man you are', I usually mean physically. :)

These are mostly Capadocia meals..manti is my best..and I am very good at that :wink:



My sister-in-law is from Urgup, and I have also spent time there as a kid, so "Manti" was very much the favourite from that region.

I remember as a kid spending my school summer breaks in Urgup , and Manti was cooked at times. It is a time consuming method, when it is really home made. The way Manti was eaten in those days would be, everyone would sit on the floor in a circle, and the Manti would be placed in the middle on a large deep tray, and everyone would dive into it, with their own spoon. On occasion, someone would try to rotate the tray, so that they can try to get to the mince meat that was just a little bit too far from them, because they have already eaten theirs, which covered the Manti.. :lol:

Kikapu wrote:Leg of Lamb in the oven, cooked over 6-8 hours, covered with Aluminum Foil with inch of water in the pan. The lamb is pierced with a small knife and placed a cut garlic all over. Also salt and black pepper all all over with "Italian Herbs". High temperature for the first 4 hours, turning the lamb every half hour, them low temperature for the next 2-4 hours. The meat just falls off the bone. Soak the lamb in it's own juice in the pan, and serve with roasted Potatoes with green /young beans, and pepper gravy on top of meat and Potatoes.

Some of it is Cypriot and the rest has been improvised. :lol:



ROSTO!!! My mum made that when we were kids and after the meal all the left over meat we use it for sandwiches...mmmm
