Ok, what are you having for dinner tonight because I really think you should be making my Yanyana Tavası. When I first travelled to Türkiye as a little girl with my family (over 30 years ago) we went on an excursion to Kemer and had lunch in a very traditional restaurant by the side of a mountain; we sat on the floor on carpets, and were served a huge tray of Etli Yanyana Tavası (an oven-baked dish made with small pieces of lamb and vegetables cooked together, “yanyana”(beside/next to each other)), which was placed in the centre of the table, with nothing other than bread to collectively tuck into it with. I’ve posted the photo on my stories. As Cypriots, we often slow-cook meals like this with bone-in joints of meat, such as lamb shanks or lamb neck on the bone, but Tava and Güveç from Türkiye are traditionally made with “kuşbaşı” (teeny tiny) pieces of lamb. I use a similar milk-based marinade here to the lamb chop recipe in Meliz’s Kitchen. Full recipe for this Yanyana Tavası on my blog. If you don’t have a round tray, use a large rectangular once - just make sure it’s large, metal-based (not glass or ceramic) and shallow so the vegetables crisp up rather than just steam. Serves 6 3 tablespoons olive oil 2 tablespoon Turkish sweet red pepper paste 50ml milk 1 tsp paprika 1 tsp smoked paprika 1 tsp ground pul biber 1 1/2 tsp dried oregano 1 tsp dried mint 600g boneless lamb shoulder / neck fillet, cut into tiny pieces 10 garlic cloves, peeled and left whole 1 1/2 teaspoon sea salt flakes 3/4 teaspoon coarse black pepper 2 onions, peeled and chopped into 2cm pieces 1 large courgette, chopped into 2cm pieces 1 medium aubergine, chopped into 2cm pieces 2 romano/ medium red bell peppers, cored and chopped into 2cm pieces 2 large Charleston/ medium green bell peppers, cored and chopped into 2cm pieces 700g Maris piper potatoes, peeled and chopped into 2cm cubes 4 tomatoes, chopped into 2cm pieces 2 Bay leaves #yanyanatavası #tepsi #onepot #onepotmeal #cosyweekend #fridaynight #fridaydinner #friday #lazyweekend #weekenddinner #slowweekend #slowcooking #lamb #vegetables

How to cook like a Kıbrıslı: Melek Nene’s Pazili Kuru Börülce (Pan Fried Chard & Black Eyed Beans) 🫘 🧅 🧄 🌿 🍋 🫒 Serves 6–8 450g cooked black eyed beans* (see notes in pinned comment) 200 g (7 oz) Swiss chard roughly chopped (stems removed, finely chopped and kept to one side) or the same quantity of spinach 3 tbsp olive oil 1 large onion, peeled and finely diced 1/2 tsp sea salt flakes 4 garlic cloves, finely sliced For the dressing 4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, plus extra to serve 4 tbsp lemon juice 1 tsp sea salt flakes 1 tsp dried mint METHOD: If using dried black eyed beans, spread them out evenly on a large tray and remove and discard any stones or broken beans. Soak and cook as per the instructions below. You can check that they’re cooked by squeezing one of the cooked beans in between your thumb and forefinger. Once cooked, remove the pan from the heat and drain the beans in a colander. You cook prepare these the night before too but I love using them when they’re still warm from being freshly cooked as the beans soak up the flavour and juices of the remaining ingredients better this way. Wash the chard thoroughly to remove any dirt or grit before roughly chopping the leaves. In a frying pan, heat the olive oil, add the onion, along with the 1/2 tsp sea sally flakes and soften over a low heat for 12–15 minutes until translucent. Add the finely chopped chard stalks and cook for a few minutes more. Once softened, increase the heat a little so the onions and chard stalks start to caramelise, then add the garlic, turn the heat down again and cook for another 2 minutes. Add the chopped chard leaves to the pan, reduce the heat and cook until the greens have wilted. Remove the pan from the heat, add the drain beans to the pan and stir well until the beans are fully coated in the greens, onions and garlic. Transfer the mixture to a serving dish. Drizzle and sprinkle over all of the dressing ingredients, stir well and serve with an extra drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. It’s the perfect accompaniment to Badadez Köftesi (coming soon) and fresh or canned fish such as tuna or smoked mackerel, chips, bread and a fresh salad. #melizcooks #beans #salad COOKING TIPS: * if using dried beans, soak 250g dried black-eyed beans overnight in lots of cold water then rinsed, added to a large pan of 2.5 litres (4½ pints) cold water - bring up to the boil, then simmer on a low heat for around for 45mins-1hr (I don’t add the juice of a lemon as the acid can react with the tenderness of the beans but if you prefer too to keep the colour of the beans brighter then that’s totally up to you. I like to use the Bodrum or Duru Black Eyed Beans (akutu Börülce). OR 2 x 400g cans black eyes beans, drained (480g drained weight) rinsed

ad Who loves a fakeaway? I mean, who doesn’t love a fakeaway? I want to show you how to make the ultimate Mixed Grill Platter in my AEG SteamCrisp oven with @Maldon Salt Chilli Sea Salt, using one base marinade recipe that can be used in a variety of different ways, depending on which meat you are marinating. If you’re hosting a crowd, you can make the whole platter (on large baking two trays), if not, feel free to just make one of the recipes. Alternatively, marinate everything and just freeze in batches so you can just defrost and cook at a later date to save on time. All of the marinated meats below can be cooked on the same trays at the same temperature for 30-35 minutes until perfectly cooked. Full recipe on the AEG and Maldon Salt websites. Please Make it. #mixedgrill #kebab #turkishfood #ad

ETLİ GÜVEÇ (LAYERED ONE-POT SLOW-COOKED BEEF & VEGETABLES): Ok, what are you having for dinner tonight, because you know as soon as my big casserole dish comes out, there’s some serious one pot delicious goodness coming your way. Think of this as the lazier, easier (if that’s even possible) sister version of Yanyana Tavası. The concept of Tava is very similar to Güveç, the only difference being that the latter is layered into a deep clay pot, weighted down, with the meat at the bottom, rather than spread out into a large round metal baking tray. It’s the perfect dish for long, lazy weekends due to the slow-cooking methods, but it makes a good, hearty midweek meal too. Recipe is on my blog (link in bio - it’s quite an old one, so search for “ETLI GÜVEÇ (LAYERED ONE-POT SLOW-COOKED BEEF & VEGETABLES)) and also in my first book, Meliz’s Kitchen. For this recipe I use braising beef, but you could also use the more traditional lamb, or chicken. Please make it. Serves 4-6 2 tbsp tomato purée 2 tbsp Turkish sweet red pepper paste (tatlı biber salçası) + 100ml boiling water 400ml chicken / beef stock 4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil 800 g (1 lb 9 oz) beef braising steak, diced 2 large red onions (300 g/10½ oz), thinly sliced 8 garlic cloves, peeled and bashed 2 bay leaves 1 1/2 tsp sea salt flakes ¾ tsp coarse black pepper 2 kapya biber / tomato / small red bell peppers 2 large long green mild (carliston) pepper / 2 small green bell peppers, cored, deseeded and cut into 2-3cm pieces 750 g (1 lb 10 oz) Cyprus or Maris Piper potatoes, peeled, cut into 3cm chunks 3 slices of fresh lemon ½ tsp dried mint 1 tsp dried oregano 4 tomatoes, halved and sliced #güveç #onepot #fyp #weekend #cooking

Türlü: Spiced Roasted Vegetable Stew “Türlü” translates as 'all kinds of', or 'all sorts' and it refers to the assortment of vegetables that are thrown together in this dish. The vegetables are roasted, like an oven-baked spiced ratatouille, with a colourful combination of herbs and sweet, warm spices - as a Turkish-Cypriot, cloves, cinnamon and coriander are essential in my recipe. It’s one of those dishes that can be eaten hot, warm or cold and simply delicious when served with bread or rice and some thick set natural yogurt or cacık, or stirred through pasta with lashings of grated hellim (of course!). Full recipe in Meliz’s Kitchen and on The Happy Foodie website. Serves 6-8 1 large aubergine 2 courgettes 1 tsp fine sea salt 2 large onions 2 large sweet red peppers (kapya biber) or romano peppers (200 g/7 oz) 4 large charleston or 2 green bell peppers (150 g/5½ oz) 4 large, ripe plum tomatoes (500 g/1 lb 2 oz) 4 large garlic cloves, peeled and bashed 50 ml (2 fl oz) olive oi /4 tsp ground clove: ½ tsp ground coriander ½ tsp paprika 1 tsp dried oregano ¾ tsp sea salt flakes ¾ tsp cracked black pepper 1 vegetable stock cube 2 tbsp tomato purée 1 tbsp Turkish sweet red pepper (tatlı biber salçasi) 600 ml (20 fl oz) boiling water 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice 1 tosp plain flour ½ cinnamon stick 1 large bay leaf 1-2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil #türlü #turkishfood #EasyRecipe #onepot #fyp

Cosy season is here - the recipe below is for chicken legs, but you could use chicken thighs and / or drumsticks - the skin and bones add flavour and collagen.

Prep: 15 minutes Cook: 1 hour 20 minutes 2 chicken stock cubes + 1.8 litres (3pts 4fl oz) boiling hot water OR 1.8 litres fresh chicken broth 4 large chicken legs, skin-on 1 tsp sea salt flakes 3 tbsp olive oil 4 large potatoes, peeled and quartered 4 large carrots, peeled and halved 4 onions, peeled and quartered 2 large celery sticks, quartered 1 fennel bulb, thickly sliced 1 tsp coarse black pepper + a little extra for garnish 1 tsp paprika 1 tsp pul biber (Aleppo pepper/ Turkish red pepper flakes) + a little extra for garnish ½ tsp dried mint 1 tsp dried oregano 1 large egg yolk 1 heaped tbsp plain flour 1 heaped tbsp natural yoghurt Juice of 1 lemon, + extra lemon wedges to serve 60g (2oz) short-grain white rice, washed and drained 25g (1oz) fresh parsley leaves, finely chopped #chickenstew #chickensoup #cosy #dinner #fyp

Ok, let’s make my DELICIOUS Domatestli Pirinç Pilavı for dinner tonight 🍚🍅🫑🌶️🌿🧅 You can swap the tinned tomatoes for delicious fresh and seasonal juicy tomatoes - cut them in half and coarsely grate them skin side down, discarding the skins and using the juicy pulp. This recipe can also be made with bulgur (known as “Meyhane Pilavı”, served with grilled / barbecued meats at a relaxed meze restaurant known as a “Meyhane”). It’s also PERFECT on its own with just a dollop of yoghurt. Ingredients below, full method continued (and pinned) in the comments. INGREDIENTS 2 tbsp olive oil 1 onion, peeled + finely diced 3/4 tsp sea salt flakes 1 sivri biber (or 1 small green bell pepper and 1/2 small green chilli), deseeded + finely diced 1 red Romano pepper / kapya biber, deseeded + finely diced 15g unsalted butter 1 tsp pul biber / Aleppo pepper 1 tsp ground cumin 1 1/2 tsp sweet paprika 1 1/2 tsp dried mint 250g washed and drained easy cook long grain white rice 1 x 400g tin finely chopped tomatoes 2 tbsp Double concentrate tomato purée 400ml hot vegetable stock 1/4 tsp coarse black pepper To serve Extra virgin olive oil, Pul biber, Fresh flat leaf parsley leaves (finely chopped), Lemon wedges, Thick natural yoghurt METHOD Add oil to large non-stick sauté / deep frying pan (with a lid) and place on hob over low-med heat. Soften onions for 4-5 mins, sprinkle in half the sea salt, and once they slowly start to change colour, add peppers and soften together for another 4-5 mins. Add butter, stir until it just melts, then add pul biber, cumin, paprika and dried mint and stir well for a minute until spices release aroma. Add finely chopped tomatoes and tomato purée, stir well again, turn heat down simmer low for a couple of mins. Add a little cold water to the polpa tin and top the stock up to 550ml in total. Add washed, drained easy cook long grain rice, stir well so all grains are coated, pour in stock, black pepper and stir again. Turn heat up so it starts to come up to a simmer, stir, turn heat right down and pop lid on. Cook for 12-15 mins, stirring occasionally to release any jammy grains stuck to the bottom of the pan, and once most of the liquid has evaporated, turn off the heat, stir once more, pop a tea towel followed by the lid onto the pan, and leave for 10 minutes before serving. So good. #melizcooks #rice #simplerecipe #EasyRecipe #easydinner #simpledinner #onepanmeal #onepotmeal #onepan #onepot #tomatoes #pilav #fyp
