Do you cook the potatoes before?
if not is there enough liquid to cook it in the pot?
Looks very simple and I'd like to try it.
Hi,
You will add all the ingredients at the same time and cook. So there will be enough water in the pot.
I just wanted to say thanks for including pictures of the dishes, they all look great.
Hi,
Thanks for all your lovely recipes. I especially adore all your pastry and bread recipes, I’ve probably tried most of them and they all turned out lovely :)
I was wondering if I could try the onions and garlic prior to adding them to this dish and cooking them; and when cooking the beef, should I add salt and pepper to it?
Sure if you like you can cook onion, garlic, salt and pepper with the ground beef.

Hi,
All my recipes are simple and easy to follow:)
You can bake Turkish Shortbread (Un Kurabiyesi) to feed 20 people.
Hi Binnur,
Your recipes are simple and just delicious. Do you cut the potatoes in round shapes or do you chop them in little cubes for this recipe?
Thank you,
Stephanie
Hi Stephanie,
Thank you:) They were cut in 3/4 inches thick round shapes:)
This recipe is amazing! You put everything in the pot and it comes out perfect. I was worried about the onions and garlic but they cooked just right.
