Turkish Menemen
Breakfast is everything in Turkey. A traditional Turkish breakfast consists of small portions of 10-15 different dishes—which together make a monstrous meal, meant to be savored while socializing and sipping bottomless Turkish tea. In the midst of different breads, pastries, cheeses, olives, salads, and spreads, you’ll find this cornerstone scrambled egg dish.
