Köfte harcı is the shortcut behind weeknight Turkish meatballs. It is not a pure spice blend: this 267 g bag from Tuğba Kuruyemiş combines galeta unu (fine rusk breadcrumbs) with twelve seasonings — cumin, garlic powder, coriander, black pepper, red pepper, chili flakes, allspice, thyme, mint, curry and salt — so the binder and the flavoring go into the bowl in one step. The breadcrumbs absorb the meat juices during cooking, which is what keeps köfte tender instead of dense.
To use it, knead a few spoonfuls into ground beef or lamb with grated onion and a splash of water, rest the mixture in the fridge for 20–30 minutes, then shape and cook. One bag seasons several batches; the common Turkish ratio is roughly one portion of mix per 500 g of minced meat, adjusted to taste. The same mix works shaped into flat patties for the grill, oval İnegöl-style köfte for the pan, or pressed onto skewers over charcoal.
- Net weight: 267 g, resealable storage in a cool, dry place (+4°C to +20°C)

If you have been measuring out cumin, pepper and breadcrumbs separately every time you make köfte, this is the same result from one bag.
