The Goralı family, who immigrated to Turkey from the Gora region of Kosovo in the 1950s, brings us this flavor. We meet Moroccan food before there are chain markets yet, in the small kiosk in Fındıkzade. Gora, which is now an indispensable part of our street tastes, brings together delicious sausages cooked in a delicious tomato sauce and American salad, and a delicious sandwich comes out between fresh baguettes. Enjoy your meal!
Since the sausages need to be cooked in tomato sauce for at least 35-40 minutes, tomato sauce must be prepared first. For this, pour 1 teaspoon of oil in a suitable pan and heat it. Add the butter and melt it.
In the butter melted over medium heat, first turn the crushed garlic a turn or two. Add the tomato paste and simmer until it smells like ezme.
Make two longitudinal lines on the sausages with a knife. Take it in the pan and turn it together for 1-2 minutes. Add the tomato puree, add salt, pepper, sugar and 2 glasses of hot water, mix for one turn, close the lid and let it cook on low heat.
In the meantime, if you are going to prepare it at home, prepare the american (russian) salad and cool it. Finely chop the pickled cucumbers lengthwise.
During the serving stage, cut the fresh baguettes in half without separating them completely, and if you wish, remove the inner parts from the middle and separate them.
Open the baguettes and press them on the boiling sausages so that they are lightly covered with the sauce. Divide the American salad into sandwiches and place one of the cooked sausages on them.
Finally, drizzle tomato sauce between the sandwiches, place the slices of pickled cucumbers, close them and serve without waiting. Enjoy your meal!
Note: In the old original recipes, a special mashed potato, special meatballs, salami and tomato sauce were put on the sandwich, not an American salad.

Sausage:
Sausage is a rich source of high-quality protein, iron, and Vitamin B12. Especially B12 is crucial for nervous system health and red blood cell production.

You can enhance its flavor with mustard and spicy sauces.
Baguette Bread:
Baguette is versatile with its simple taste and crispy crust. Its carbohydrates provide energy. Good companions: Cheese, olive oil, soup.
American Salad:
American salad is a refreshing mayonnaise-based vegetable delight. Carrots are a source of vitamin A, while peas provide fiber. Optional pickles can support probiotic intake. It can be enjoyed in sandwiches, as a side dish with meat, or on its own. Corn and red pepper can also be added.
Tomato Paste:
Tomato Paste is a concentrated source of lycopene, a potent antioxidant whose bioavailability increases when heated. This property supports heart health and may help reduce the risk of certain cancers, particularly prostate cancer. It also contains Vitamin K and potassium. Its absorption is enhanced when consumed with olive oil. It pairs perfectly with onions, garlic, red meat, and legumes, adding depth and umami to dishes.
Tomato Puree:
Tomato puree is a powerful antioxidant source, rich in lycopene. When cooked, lycopene absorption increases, which supports skin health, protects cells against free radicals, and may positively contribute to heart health. It also contains beneficial components like Vitamin C and potassium. It pairs wonderfully with Mediterranean flavors such as olive oil, garlic, fresh basil, and oregano. An indispensable ingredient, it adds depth to pasta sauces, stews, and soups.

Garlic:
Garlic, thanks to its allicin compound, offers strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. It can boost the immune system, increasing resistance against illnesses. Furthermore, it contributes to cardiovascular health by helping regulate blood pressure and balance cholesterol levels. Widely used in traditional medicine, garlic is also known for its digestive support effects. An indispensable ingredient in meat dishes, vegetable sautés, and Mediterranean cuisine, it pairs wonderfully with herbs like rosemary and thyme.
Granulated Sugar:
Granulated sugar is one of the body's primary energy sources. It provides rapid glucose for the brain and muscles, meeting immediate energy demands. It can quickly help stabilize energy levels after intense physical activity or when feeling fatigued. Additionally, it may contribute to short-term serotonin release, which can improve mood. It is commonly used as a flavor balancer in numerous recipes, including coffee, tea, desserts, and fruit salads.

Salt is an essential mineral that adds unique flavor to dishes and serves as a natural preservative. It provides vital electrolyte balance for the body's water regulation, nerve, and muscle functions. It pairs perfectly with spices, herbs, and oils, enriching the taste of every meal.

Pickled Cucumber:
Gherkin pickle, with its fermented structure, contains probiotics that support gut health.
