Közlenmiş Patlıcan — Charred Eggplant on Cold Garlic Yogurt
This is the meze I put on the table before anyone even sits down. Eggplant that has been properly burned — not roasted, burned — laid warm and smoky over cold yogurt sharp with garlic, finished with enough red pepper to make the plate glow. It comes from the simplest instinct in this kitchen: fire, smoke, and something cool to meet it. When this plate is in the middle of the table, the evening has officially started. #turkish #eggplant #vegetarian #grilled #meze #istanbul
