A traditional Sivas dish of madimak, a local wild green, sautéed with onion and topped with garlic yogurt. This nourishing regional vegetable dish is especially popular in spring.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Prepare the Madimak

10 min

Sort through the madimak and remove the tough stems. Rinse it several times in plenty of water, drain, and roughly chop.

2

Cook the Onion

5 min

Cook the onion in the butter until softened.

3

Add the Madimak

15 min

Add the chopped madimak. Sprinkle in the flour, season with salt and black pepper, and cook over low heat until tender and the liquid has evaporated.

4

Serve with Yogurt

3 min

Mix the yogurt with the crushed garlic and spoon it over the hot madimak just before serving. Important: Add the yogurt at the time of serving; it may curdle if stirred in too early.

Reminder

Sort through the madimak and wash it several times in plenty of water to remove any soil. If madimak is unavailable, spinach can give a similar result, though the flavor will be different.

Hamur bir türlü toparlanmadı, un eklemek zorunda kaldım. Ocaktan erken aldım, içi tam pişmemiş. Fırın sıcaklığını yanlış ayarlamışım, alt kısmı fazla kızardı.
