DON’T waste your time on Orhan Pamuk – I spent way too much time reading his drivel of name-dropping and place-DUMPINGs of life for the rich and famous which may be of interest to some, but I prefer thewriters sharing more social, political or environmental issues whether in prose, essays or other literary format that isn’t rambling on and on like a fuckin Twilight novel.

Kısırand Poğaças – Turkish Yummy Yum-Yums
From The Best Burger Restaurant?
Not sure whether they actually sold burgers, but their veggies dishes were damn good!
The Turkish dish, kısır, is a popular and delicious meal that any housewife can make quickly. It generally requires no more than five-six ingredients, which often include bulgur, tomato paste, spring onions, parsley, fresh mint, and pomegranate.
Poğaças pronounced pwa-cha is a savory Turkish pastry made with feta and blue cheese. They are a close cousin to the Middle Eastern cheese fatayer, or the Greek tiropita.
The dough is similar in consistency to that of a biscuit dough. It uses no eggs, and has a nice elasticity that makes it incredibly easy to work with. There is no sticky factor to this dough at all!!

Other Tasty Treats I particular can eat every day:

Kumpir is a popular Turkish dish that’s best described as a stuffed baked potato. It’s typically an oversized baked potato cut in half and filled with slices of various vegetables, pickles, mayonnaise, ketchup, grated cheese, olives, sausages, and other condiments.
Şakşuka is one of the traditional Turkish foods that’s heavy on garlic and tomatoes. It typically contains crushed tomato, eggplant, zucchini, olive oil, finely chopped onions, salt, and pepper to taste.
Kuru Fasulya
One of the most popular Turkish foods is kuru fasulye, a stew dish made from dried navy beans. Turkey has some excellent takes on this humble legume that might just convert anyone who isn’t sold yet.
Hünkar Beğendi is one of the masterpieces created in the Ottoman palace kitchens. The literal translation of this dish is “Sultan’s Delight.” When they served this dish to an Ottoman Sultan for the first time, he was so ecstatic over it; they personified his euphoria in the name.
This old Turkish recipe is perfectly tender lamb meat placed on the smoky aubergine and melted cheese sauce.
Ezogelin soup is one of the most traditional Turkish soups and can be found anywhere in Turkey. While not the same, it is similar to the equally delicious Mercimek Çorbası (lentil soup). Ezogelin Çorbası is prepared with tomato paste, rice, red lentils, bulgur, onion, and butter.
Perde Pilavı
This dish is like a work of art. Rice, chicken, pine nuts, butter, and spices such as oregano and black pepper are enveloped in a thin layer of dough, topped with almonds and currants, and cooked inside fez-shaped pots. It looks like a cake at first glance.
Su Böreği is the star of all Turkish pastries and börek and is considered one of the most challenging recipes in Turkey. It translates as “Water Börek” symbolizing the soft and juicy handmade phyllo sheets inside. The tricky part of this recipe is giving it the right softness and juiciness inside.
Çiğ Köfte
Finely grounded fatless lamb, bulgur, onions, garlic, tomato, and hot pepper paste is treated with extremely hot spices (isot, pul biber) and kneaded until the lamb is cured (cooked) by these hot spices. As the meat is not properly cooked, it should be consumed fresh and can’t be stored overnight.
Mücver is similar to hash browns, but it is mostly prepared with zucchini instead of potatoes in Turkey. The ingredients are grated zucchini, eggs, onions, flour, parsley, and dill.
Karnıyarık
If you’re an eggplant fanatic, then Turkey is the perfect place for your culinary pilgrimage. The country’s cuisine features many ways to cook this tangy purple vegetable, with recipes ranging from vegetarian dishes like “İmam Bayıldı” or meat dishes such as the delicious Turkish version of “Moussaka.”
İçli köfte, which translates as stuffed meatballs in English, is a traditional Turkish appetizer
