Menemen; for a warm and delicious morning

TurkeyBreakfasten

Menemen is a tomato-based egg dish from Turkiye that people make at home for breakfast very often. Every house has their own way of doing menemen, and this is mine. I hope you enjoy it :)

Serves 2

Ingredients

4 pcs Egg
3 pcs Tomato (medium sized)
2 pcs Green Pepper
1 pcs Onion
2 tbsp Olive Oil
0.5 tsp Salt
1 pinch Chili Flakes
1 pinch Black Pepper

Steps

Grate the tomatoes and put it aside. Chop the onions and peppers and sauté them in olive oil on a hot pan.
Add the tomatoes and cook until the water reduces.
Season with salt, pepper and chili flakes.
Crack the eggs into the pan and mix thoroughly.
Serve immediately, warm with fresh bread and enjoy!

Tips

Don't overcook the eggs, menemen should be soft. I suggest eating it with a fresh baguette, ciabatta bread or bagels.
