Slightly Spicy Paprika and Potato Salad with Turkey Shashlik

The perfect slightly spicy paprika and potato salad with turkey shashlik recipe with a picture and simple step-by-step instructions.

Salad:

  • 500 g Potatoes slightly floury
  • 100 g Red and yellow peppers
  • 100 g Spring onion sticks
  • 100 g Cucumber mini
  • 200 g Yogurt 1.5%
  • 100 g Paprika pulp (Ajvar)
  • 50 g Mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp Sugar
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 tbsp Light balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tsp Red chilli flakes

Shashlik:

  • 450 g Turkey breast fillet
  • 200 g Streaky bacon
  • 100 g Red and yellow peppers
  • 1 medium sized Onion
  • Pepper salt
  • Sunflower oil for frying

Salad:

  1. Boil the potatoes with their peel until done, allow to cool, peel and cut into large cubes. Wash and core the peppers and cut into small cubes. Clean the spring onions and cut into small pieces. Wash the cucumber, do not peel, cut into cubes the same size as the peppers.
  2. Put the bell peppers, spring onions, cucumber and chilli flakes in a larger bowl, mix together and add a little salt. Mix yoghurt, ajvar, mayonnaise, sugar, salt and balsamic vinegar into a marinade, season well and mix with the vegetables. Then fold in the slightly floury potatoes (better absorb the marinade than firm boiling ones) and let everything steep for at least 2 hours. Of course, longer is better.

Shashlik:

  1. Cut the meat into approximately 5 cm cubes. Wash and core the peppers and cut into pieces of the same size. Cut the bacon into thicker slices (should match the size of the meat). Peel and quarter the onion and peel the quarters apart. Lightly oil about 7 kebab skewers and then skewer everything alternately. 4 meat cubes should always be used per skewer. Pepper and salt the finished skewers all around.
  2. If you have a grill pan, just brush it with a little oil and fry the skewers well on all sides and let them get colored. This can take about 8-10 minutes so that the meat is juicy but no longer raw in places. With a normal pan, be a little more generous with the oil.
  3. Before serving, stir the salad again and season it if necessary, as the potatoes soak up a lot. Then arrange them together, garnish as you wish and ……….. let them taste good.
