strong>Menemen is a Turkish |
|
dish which includes egg, onion, tomato and green peppers |
|
(paprika), and spices such as ground black pepper, ground red |
|
pepper, salt, oregano, and mint). Black or green olives can be |
|
included as ingredients. Turkish meat products such as sucuk (a |
|
spicy sausage) or past?rma (thinly sliced dried cured beef) can |
|
be added, although this strays from the traditional recipe. The |
|
eggs are scrambled. It is cooked with butter, although olive oil |
|
may also be used. The dish is very similar to |
|
shakshouka.</strong><strong> |
|
/strong><strong> |
|
enemen is |
|
commonly eaten for breakfast and served with bread. |
|
</strong> |
|
strong>It\'s very easy to make (granted no one steals |
|
your eggs) and very delicious..... Just ask Erdogan yasaran |
|
</strong> |
|
strong>Ingredients (serves |
|
4):</strong><strong> |
|
/strong><strong> |
 |
eggs |
|
</strong><strong> |
 |
medium/large tomatoes, peeled and chopped |
|
into small chunks </strong><strong> |
|
long green peppers cut |
|
into small chunks (our host uses one or two sliced blazingly hot |
|
green chilli peppers as well, but bravery is required for this |
|
version). Bell peppers can be used if you can�t find long |
|
slender ones. </strong><strong> |
 |
finely sliced white onions |
|
</strong><strong> |
|
alf a cup of olive oil </strong><strong> |
|

|
and pepper to taste |

|
eat |
|
the eggs in a bowl and add a little salt and pepper |
|
</strong><strong> |
|
/strong><strong> |
|
arm the olive oil in a |
|
large pan, then lightly fry the onions and peppers without |
|
browning. After about 2 minutes add the chopped tomatoes. Cook |
|
the mixture until all the veggies are really nice and soft |
|
(around 7-8 minutes), and the juice has been reduced by about |
|
half. </strong><strong> |
|
/strong><strong> |
|
our on the eggs and |
|
stir continually until it begins to firm. At this point, you can |
|
become adventurous and extend the boundaries of �menemen� by |
|
adding some extra exotica (see below) should you wish. The |
|
resulting masterpiece should be firm and juicy, not dry. |

</strong><strong> |
|
/strong><strong> |

eason with salt and pepper. |
|
</strong><strong> |
|
/strong><strong> |
|
erve immediately with fresh |
|
bread � the ideal accompaniment to mop it up. |

|
enemen is such a |
|
wonderful base dish, you can add in all manner of things to take |
|
the flavour in a variety of directions. It may upset the |
|
purists, but feel free to ignore them and mix things up a |
|
little. To play with the dish�s texture and taste, you could add |
|
any of the below: </strong><strong> |
|
ome flat leaf parsley, |
|
coriander, oregano, feta cheese, and some meaty stuff such as |
|
sucuk (Turkish sausage), pastrami, salami, parma ham.</strong> |

Menemen is fried eggs with tomatoes and other, it also serves as |
|
code for bring help, if your friend says bring us some menemen |
|
on your way but let it be for three, he\'s either insinuating |
|
that he is held at gun point by a third party whom you\'ll be |
|
treating menemen or he is really hungry |
 |
can\'t post pics from |
|
phone so just think omlette with stuff on it |

I am from Latin America, El Salvador to be exact and we also |
|
have this same dish. Even though it is a breakfast dish, it can |
|
be eaten at any time of the day. I frequently have it for dinner |
|
as it is easy to cook and not so heavy on your stomach. It is |
|
delicious!� |
