Turkish one-pan eggs & peppers (Menemen)

'Menemen' is just the Turkish name for this dish. The Turks also cook another dish by the same name, which is basically scrambled eggs mixed with the same ingredients (tomatoes, peppers, onions, a pinch of red pepper flakes and parsley). They pre-cook the pepper/tomato mixture and then scramble in the eggs at the end. From a visual point of view, it has a touch of the 'dog's breakfast' about it, but it actually tastes really delicious, especially piled onto thick toast. This is the version that most housewives would cook at home - the Goodfood version tends to be the one you always find at stands in bus and railway stations for some reason.

What is the 'menemen'?

Quick, easy and delicious. Added chorizo and a pinch of paprika to mine.

I cooked this for me and my hubby for our lunch today... well a modification of it because he doesn't like chilli. I used paprika instead and also did without the yogurt. I put the garlic in with the peppers, and onions and also added mushrooms. My adaptation was COMPLETELY delicious. I would definitely recommend serving this with loads of good bread and make sure you have enough bread left to mop up the plate at the end. I didn't and regretted it. My husband, however, did and once he'd finished mopping up his plate proceeded to carry on with mine with his remaining piece of bread. Thank you Good Food for publishing this wonderful recipe!!!! I think it's going to become a regular!
