Menemen
Menemen is a Turkish dish: tomatoes, peppers and onion are stewed in a pan until soft, then beaten eggs are poured in and cooked while stirring constantly, so the eggs don't set as a separate layer but blend into the vegetables. It's a vegetarian dish.
It's served straight from the pan, hot and slightly moist in texture — usually eaten with bread for scooping. It's a good choice for anyone who wants a light, meat-free vegetable breakfast that isn't just plain scrambled eggs.
