Didn’t have any cucumber but still made a ziki sauce anyway. Didn’t have any parsley either. So this meal is way more beige than I would have liked. But it was flavorful.

My cost per person was like $1 Can you order this anywhere? Yes. And it will probably be much better. But this was still really good. Cost per person if you had to buy everything: probably close to 7.50.

    Minced meat comes out puffy and great when you know your airfryer. I prefer airfryer over a grill pan. I like to use Orzo instead of long grained rice, but that looks perfect. How did you spice the meat if a may ask?

      I like the crust that the air fryer can put on ground beef. Which makes it perfect for kabab style.

      I get basmati in bulk for my long grain and use it for just about anything that doesn’t explicitly need to be short grain. Unless it is for risotto. Then I get the orzo but I don’t stock it because it will be a while before I use it and it will go rancid.

        Thank you kindly for the recipe.

        I always get an 18 kilo bag of Cambodian jasmine rice. Lasts me a while and the quality is perfect. We have a large distributor for the EU near our village that imports a large variety of Asian foods.

        For orzo I mostly buy Italian brands. We eat it a lot, as flavored ‘rice’ or for instance in chorba, so there are a few bags in the cupboard all the time. Can be stored for a good while too.
