omgosh! that looks amazing!!! what is the central dish?
It's called "menemen" in Turkish.
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon hot paprika
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano (optional)
1 small onion, finely diced (about 3/4 cup)
3/4 cup finely diced shishito, padrón, or Chinese green long pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup chopped fresh ripe peeled tomatoes or drained canned tomatoes
4 eggs, lightly beaten
Minced fresh chives, for garnish (optional)
Preparing:
In a medium non-stick or cast iron skillet, heat olive oil over low heat until barely warm. Add paprika, oregano, onion, and peppers. Season with salt and a very generous amount of black pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until very soft, about 8 minutes. Add tomatoes and continue to cook, stirring frequently, until deepened in color. Remove half of mixture and reserve.

Return pan to heat and add eggs. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until just barely set. Immediately remove from heat and gently fold in reserved vegetable mixture. Sprinkle with chives, if using, and serve immediately.
I strongly recommend you to try sometime. It a bit heavy for breakfast but worth to try :) Mostly served with a cup of tea.
ohmygosh thank you very much! I will make this on Sunday - I am super super excited for this. Thank you !!
Followed you :)
Thank you you are so sweet and kind :) You should try more food from Turkish kitchen. I'm not saying because i live in there really, it is really unique. Our breakfast culture is extraordinary, because it's the most important meal of the day. Waiting for your new posts and i might recommend you more recipes :)
