Today might be a more miserable day than yesterday, there is still the rumor, the smell and the possibility of snow in the air. And there is still lots of snow on the ground. I live on the east coast which is not that much fun nowadays. Anyways, back to basics, what's for dinner! That I am not sure yet! It may be a good idea to whip up one of grandma's recipes. I remember her losing sleep over the next day's menu.
Bugun dunden daha berbat bir gun olabilir, havada hala kar soylentisi, kar kokusu ve kar olasigi var, yerde de tonla kar. Ben dogu kiyisinda yasiyorum, bu gunlerde hic de eglenceli degil. Neyse, esas konuya donelim. Aksama ne yiyelim! Uff ben ne bileyim! Ama anneannemin tariflerinden birini yapabilirim. Onun da "yarin ne pisireyim" diyerek uykularinin kactigini hatirlarim.
Pasta with Meat and Garlic Yogurt Sauce
A box of farfalle (bow tie) pasta
ground beef, lean 1/2 - 1 pound
medium onion
medium tomato
flat leaf Mediterranean parsley
salt, pepper
plain fat free yogurt
lots a garlic 1-5 cloves it is up to you
olive oil 1 tsp
While boiling the water to cook the pasta in, in a big pot, (pls don't forget to salt the water after it boils) in a pan start browning the meat ( If you are not using a non stick pan add a little olive oil into the pan). After a couple of minutes attack the meat with your spatula and break it up, add salt and pepper . When it is all brown and looks cooked add your diced onion and sauté it with the meat for maybe 3 minutes, than add the diced tomato, and finally after the tomato is cooked your thinly chopped parsley. Keep the meat warm.
Crash the garlic cloves, peel and mince.
Cook the pasta to your liking, drain and save 1/2 cup of the cooking water.
Mix the yogurt with the cooking water, add the garlic.
Put the pasta in the serving platter, pour the garlic yogurt on top, then add the meat as the top most layer.
Simple and yummy.
This is the basic version made by grandma and all the other women in my family, sometimes I add chopped walnuts or roasted pine nuts to the meat sauce. Enjoy!

Kiymali Yogurtlu Fiyonk Makarna
pisirmeyi hepiniz bilirsiniz, eminim hepinizin yaptigi da super olup, afiyetle yeniyordur. Ben anneannemden ogrendigimi tekrarlayayim mi?
Makarnayi bol tuzlu suda haslarim, okyanus tadinda. Hasladigim makarna suyundan biraz ayirip, sarimsaklayacagim yogurtla karistiririm ki yogurt isinsin, digerlerini usutmesin. Soganla domatesi kiyma pismek uzere iken eklerim, soganim yanmasin diye. En sonunda da makarna, sarimsakli yogurt, kiyma sirasiyla tabaga koyar servis yaparim. Bazen cesit olsun diye kiymaya ince dogranmis ceviz veya az kavrulmus cam fistigi ekledigim de olur. (Bu benim uydurmam, anneannemin tarifinde yoktu.) Afiyet olsun!
