Dear Osman Akkuş, Ayla Tepeci and Ayla Tepeci İlayda Temizyürek,

I ask Mars what local food is the best in Taiwan ?
He recommend me Huge-sized Chicken Cutlet.
He say it is one of the most popular street food in Taiwan. Taiwanese fried chicken is soaked in special sauce before frying. I feel it very special.
It is 1.5 times larger than the regular fried chicken. Perhaps bigger than your face. It’s mixed with spicy pepper and aromatic herbals, and the meat quality is tender and juicy. In the night market you can see a lot of vendors sell it.
If you want to know how to prepare the food,I tell you.
First, prepare the marinated chicken. Second clip the chicken in the flour and fry. Finally when the surface of the chicken turns gold, you can serve it, and enjoy the delicacy.
You must come to Taiwan to try local snacks in Taiwan, because there is not only Huge-sized Chicken Cutlet but also Pearl milk tea.
I hope you can really taste our food
Do you have any question about Huge-sized Chicken Cutlet?
Best Wish

Hello, Jay, Guan-Wei,Wendy, Wade, Yu-Hung ,Jacky,Grandmother, Shen,Shuo and Yen,
My partner, Elif, would like to recommend one of the Turkish local food “rice with meat.” She says,” I like rice with meat so I want to recommend it.”
It looks nice. It is made with chopped meat, rice,peas, carrots, butter, salt, spices and water.You can have it everytime.. Pour sufficient scalding water over the rice to cover, stir in a tablespoon of salt and leave to cool for 30 minutes. Put the chopped meat into a saucepan, add some water and cook it. Drain the rice and fry it in the melted butter for 5-6 minutes .Then pour the boiling water and add some salt. Let it cook until there is no water left at high heat, then low heat.The rice should not be sticky but separate into individual grains.Finally put the boiled ingredients on top of the rice.If you want, you can put boiled peas in the rice.After keeping it stand for a while, you can serve. Ayran(drink made with yogurt, salt and water) goes well with it.
Do you want to try it?

Hi dear friends,
I’ll tell you one of Turkish food and it is Raw Meatball’Çiğ köfte’.When we make it,we use boiled and pounded wheat( bulgur in Turkish),minced meat,onion,tomato sauce,tomato,parsley,lemon,garlic and spices.
Wash and drain the bulgur. Grate the onions, chop the parsley and mix them together. Peel and cut the tomatoes into small cubes and add to the onions and parsley. Put the salt, black pepper, red pepper, all spice and cumin into the mixture, and mix with the hand a couple of times to blend and set aside.
Raw Meatballs Kneading
Put the meat and bulgur on a large tray and make into a paste by kneading. Moisten hands with cold water sometimes while you are kneading. Add the prepared mixture of onion, tomatoes and spices to the meat and knead to make a paste. Take small pieces of the mixture and press with the palm to flatten it, and put on a serving plate.
Decorate with lettuce and parsley before you serve it. You should prepare raw meatballs just before serving, because if they stand for a long time, the taste is spoiled. I really love this food because it is good for my taste.My partners,İrem and Kübra love it.
Good appetite!
