This is a specialty of Mel’s uncle that he loves to make for us whenever we visit Bodrum. It’s basically scrambled eggs with vegetables, but the key is to sweat the vegetables first, so that once the eggs are added, they are really cooking in the vegetables’ juices, which creates a richer flavor.
Ingredients
3 tablespoons 1 cup 150 g
Method
Heat the olive oil in a large sauté pan set over medium heat, then add the Anaheim peppers, onions, red peppers, green onions, and crushed red pepper. Add a little bit of salt and sweat the vegetables, stirring continuously. Once the vegetables are translucent with slight color, about 6 to 8 minutes, add the tomatoes. Continue to cook until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 5 to 8 minute
