What the creator captured
Ayhan Mortepe visited Gölhisar to witness a unique cooking technique where meat is flash-fried in kidney fat for exactly seven seconds. While he found the speed and tenderness of the meat impressive, he noted it was a good roadside stop rather than the best kavurma he had ever eaten. He also used the video to defend small business pricing and address the importance of constructive criticism in his comments section.
