Etli Kabak Dolması is one of the lightest and most refreshing main courses of Turkish cuisine. It features tender, sweet summer zucchinis hollowed out and stuffed with a rich filling prepared from a harmonious blend of minced beef and lamb, rice, onions, tomatoes, fresh mint, and dill, then slow-cooked to a melt-in-your-mouth perfection in a pot.

Etli Pazı Sarması is a light yet highly nourishing traditional delicacy featuring fresh Swiss chard leaves stuffed with a rich filling harmonized from minced beef and lamb, rice, fresh herbs, and olive oil, then slow-cooked over low heat accompanied by a slightly tangy sauce.
