İnsan yurtdışında hangi yemekleri özlüyor?

15- Gözleme

This hand made pastry can be made with many ingredients but I just love it with cheese!

14- Iç Pilav

Appearently it’s called garnished rice. I love it. Especially with steamed chicken.

13- Dolma

Everyone knows what dolma is. It’s amazing. But I’m sure Eren loves them more than I do.

12- Sucuk

It’s pronounced as soudjouk and it’s made out of ground beef and spices. Although it’s a part of a regular Turkish breakfast, I just felt like it needed to be an item on its own.

11- Türk Kahvesi

Turkish coffee. I don’t drink a lot of it when I’m in Turkey but for some reason I felt like it should be on the list.

10- İnegöl Köfte

Meatballs. You can say it’s a traditional dish named after a small town called inegöl in Turkey. It’s usually sold in kebab restaurants and they’re really cheap. It’s great for when you’re drunk.

9- Kurufasulye

I just can’t seem to find the right kind of beans for this. I love it and it’s served with rice and yogurt.

8- Bezelye Yemeği

Probably one of my favorite dishes. I used to have it religiously when I was in Turkey. It’s great with rice and yogurt. yumm.

7- Kestane Şekeri

I actually really hadnt thought about until I saw a picture of it while searching for something else. I love chestnut candy. They’re chestnuts sweetened in syrup.

6- Rakı

Raki will eff you up. It’s almost sweet to drink but it’s 45% Alcohol so be careful. I haven’t had raki in like about a year or so but for some reason ever since we moved here I really really want to have some. When you’re drinking raki it’s customary to have mezes with it (whole other subject), most popular ones being white cheese and watermelon.

5- Mantı

This is basically like dumplings. It’s served with garlic yogurt and herbs and it kicks ass.

4- Kazandibi

This is a desert. I won’t tell you what it’s made of. But it’s one of the best deserts you can ever have. It can be served with some vanilla ice cream.

3- Kahvaltı

Basically it means breakfast. But from what I’ve seen a Turkish breakfasts are a different phenomenon. They are fit for a King and also sometimes they are called King’s breakfast. You can find anything from eggs, green/black olives, a few types of cheese, bread, pastries, sucuk, at least a few types of jam and marmalade, honey, cucumbers, tomatoes (these are the must haves). There are also additions you can make. The picture doesn’t do it justice.

2- Kumpir

This is another of my favorite dishes. It’s not something you particularly make at home. It’s something you would buy outside and it’s pretty fast food style. It may not look good but it definitely tastes amazing and it goes great with number 1.

1- EFES

Seriously, this is the best beer in the world and I miss it. I drink miller instead but obviously it’s not the same. It’s a pilsener beer and it kicks ass.

So here is my list. Hope you enjoyed it. Try Turkish cuisine people. It’s almost as awesome as me.
