What the creator captured
Hatay Sandık İçi visited his mother's home in İskenderun to prepare a massive Ottoman-style sausage on a specialized rotating grill. He meticulously crafted a multi-layered wrap featuring a unique curry-yogurt sauce and homemade vinegar, finishing the wraps by brushing them with spicy oil and crisping them over hot coals. The highlight was the technique of shaving the juicy, fatty outer layers of the sausage directly into the bread for a street-food style feast.
