“Avji koftesi” translates as “Hunting meatballs” – a dish from the menu of the Ottoman court, served at a reception at the Sultan in honor of the palace military leaders.

With the increasing influence of European cuisine, the dish received a European addition in the form of additional ingredients and cooking methods.
