Instructions:

  1. Finely chop the meat. For marinating, stir in milk, soda, oil, spices and finely grated onion and lay the meat.
  2. Mix the meat thoroughly and put it in the marination sauce, wrap it with cling film, put it in the refrigerator and let it rest for at least 1 hour.
  3. Meanwhile, peel and cut the french fries into match-size pieces and put them in cold water with 1 tablespoon of salt added.
  4. Take the rested meat out of the sauce and add oil to the bottom and fry it in the pressure cooker that you heated until it turns pink.
  5. Add salt and pepper to the roasted meats, add enough hot water to pass 3-4 fingers over them, and cook for 10-15 minutes on low heat in pressure cooker.
  6. Rinse the potatoes out of the water and remove excess water with a paper towel. Add portions to deep and hot oil and fry until golden brown and remove on paper towel.
  7. For the sauce, peel and grate the tomatoes. Heat the butter in a saucepan and fry the tomato paste. Add the grated tomatoes and let the juice drain slightly. Add 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of granulated sugar and red pepper flakes according to your taste.
  8. Re-fry the cooled potatoes for a few more minutes and put them on a paper towel.
  9. Spread the potatoes on a wide serving platter. Place the meat on it and drizzle yogurt. Garnish with tomato sauce and parsley leaves. Serve hot, without waiting, with roasted peppers and tomatoes, if you wish. Enjoy your meal!
