Ingredients
For the Marinade
- 400 g fillet steak or sirloin (cut in julienne)
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon white wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
For the Tomato Sauce
- 1 large tomato (grated)
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- ⅓ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon sugar
- ¼ cup water
For Serving
- 400 g potatoes
- 1 cup vegetable or sunflower oil for frying
- 1 cup plain natural yoghurt
Instructions
Marinate the Beef
- Trim off any fatty and sinewy bits of your steak, and cut it into thick julienne.
- In a large bowl, mix the olive oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper, and then add the steak pieces.
- Give it a good stir, making sure all the meat is covered with the marinade.
- Let the meat marinate refrigerated for a minimum of two hours, ideally overnight.
Prepare the Tomato Sauce
- To make the sauce, place the grated tomatoes, tomato paste, sugar, salt, paprika, and water in a small saucepan.
- Stir well to mix them all and let it gently simmer for 15 minutes on low heat while preparing the potatoes.
Prepare the Potatoes
- Peel and cut the potatoes into matchstick-size strips and transfer into a bowl with cold water to remove the starch in the potato and increase flavor.
- Drain the potatoes and pat dry them with a kitchen towel.
- Heat a cup of oil in a pan on medium-high heat and fry the potatoes until golden and crispy. Do it in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.
- Remove them on a paper towel to get rid of excess oil and start stir-frying your beef.
Stir Fry the Beef
- Remove the marinated meat from the fridge and place a wok or a large pan on high heat.
- When the wok is hot enough, add the meat and stir fry for a couple of minutes, until it's cooked evenly.
Build Your Cokertme Kebab
- To serve your kebab, place some fried potatoes on a plate and top it with a dollop of yogurt.
- Drizzle some of the tomato sauce on top of the yogurt and place the beef on top.
- Finish with some more drizzle of the tomato sauce over the beef and garnish with some parsley.

Notes
- This special Bodrum Çökertme Kebabı is very easy to make at home with a few fridge ingredients.
- Although traditionally beef steak is used to make this delicious kebab dish, you can use julienne cut chicken breast or lamb steak if you prefer so.
- The cooking time might vary depending on the size and type of the meat.
- Place the potato matchsticks into a bowl with cold water to remove the starch in the potato and increase flavor.
- This kebab dish is a complete & filling meal on its own.
- I recommend that 200 grams of meat are enough for one portion.
- You can add some grated or finely chopped garlic to your yogurt for extra flavor.
