A beloved breakfast sauté from Southeastern Anatolia, made by sautéing red lentils with onion and spices and cracking egg on top. A hearty and economical recipe made with few ingredients.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Boil the lentils

12 min

Boil the red lentils in plenty of water until soft, then drain.

2

Sauté the onion

5 min

Sauté the onion in butter until it turns pink, then add the red pepper paste and cook for a few more minutes.

3

Add the lentils

3 min

Add the drained lentils to the pan and sauté together with cumin and red pepper flakes for a few minutes, then add salt.

4

Crack the eggs and cook

4 min

Crack the eggs over the sauté and cook over low heat, stirring, until they reach your desired consistency.

Reminder

Important: Boil the lentils in advance and drain them, otherwise the sauté will turn watery. After cracking the eggs, cook over low heat; take them off early if you want the yolk to stay runny. Allergen: contains egg.

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

Adding a pinch of red pepper flakes and mint to the sauté brings out the flavor typical of Southeastern cuisine; you can serve it with fine bulgur pilaf on the side.

Hamur bir türlü toparlanmadı, un eklemek zorunda kaldım. Malzemeleri sırayla eklemeyi unuttum, kıvamı biraz farklı oldu.
