What it is

A rich and incredibly tender dish of whole lamb head, slow-cooked in the traditional Beykoz style until the meat is succulent and falling off the bone. This regional delicacy is served simply, often with lemon wedges and fresh herbs, and is naturally high in fat and protein.

Key ingredients

Lamb head, water, salt, black pepper, bay leaf, lemon wedges, fresh parsley/dill for garnish.

Optional tweaks

Ensure no bread, rice, or starchy side dishes are served with it.

Watch out for

None inherent to the dish itself. The only risk would be if it's served with traditional high-carb Turkish side dishes.
