Prepare the simit
5 minSlice the sesame bread rings and arrange them in a greased baking dish.
This savory take on a classic sweet bread pudding is made by soaking slices of day-old Turkish sesame bread in an egg-and-milk mixture, then baking them with kashar cheese, a Turkish semi-hard cheese. Serve it hot for breakfast or brunch.
Slice the sesame bread rings and arrange them in a greased baking dish.
Whisk the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper. Pour the mixture over the bread slices and let them soak for at least 5 minutes. Sprinkle the grated kashar cheese over the top.
Bake in an oven preheated to 190°C / 375°F for 30 minutes, until the top is browned and the eggs are set.
Let the dish rest for 10 minutes after removing it from the oven. Garnish with parsley and serve.
If you soak the bread slices for too little time, the centers may stay dry; let them soak for at least 5 minutes. If you remove the dish from the oven too early, the eggs may remain runny, so bake until set and browned on top. Allergens: wheat (gluten), sesame, egg, and dairy (kashar cheese and milk).
