"pourgouri" or bulgur, is the traditional carbohydrate other than bread. it is often steamed with tomato and onion; a few strands of vermicelli pasta are often added to provide a texture, fragrance, colour and flavour contrast. along with pourgouri, natural yogurt is a staple. wheat and yogurt come together in the traditional peasant meal of "tarhana/trahanas", a way of preserving milk in which the cracked wheat is steamed, mixed with sour milk, dried, and stored. small amounts reheated in water or broth provide a nourishing and tasty meal, especially with added cubes of aged halloumi. pourgouri is also used to make "koupes" or "içli/bulgur köfte", the cypriot form of kibbeh, where the pourgouri is mixed with flour and water to form a dough, which is formed into a cigar shape. a hollow is made through the cigar and a mixture of minced meat, onions, parsley and cinnamon is packed. after sealing the meat mixture inside the cigar they are deep-fried before serving with lemon juice.
