TURKISH BREAKFAST







                                            TURKISH BREAKFAST

 

This picture shows you a traditional Turkish breakfast. Breakfast is the first meal of a new day. All nutritionist say breakfast is the most important meal of the day. I was curious  about other countries breakfast habits.  After my search I have seen that breakfast food changes place to place in the world. But  Turkish breakfast habit is quite unique. The standard Turkish breakfast includes  bread, black and green olives,white cheese (similar to feta), old cheese (kasar), butter, jam, honey, sliced tomato and cucumber, boiled egg, omelet or menemen, sausage (sucuk), pastry (borek  & pogca) tea and coffee but mostly tea. Turkish coffee is well known in the world but surprisingly we drink tea more then coffee. We have special small glass for Turkish tea.  We usually drink Turkish coffee after meal.
My recipe of today is  a simple but delicious breakfast food.






INGREDIENTS
6 slices of sourdough  or any white bread
100g-3 1/2 oz white cheese or feta
3 medium eggs
1 Tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons parsley, finely chopped

PREPARATION
Spread butter to sliced bread, mix eggs, cheese and parsley. Spread the mixture. Place on to oven rack, grill ( broil) until light brown .
