Turkish Menemen (Peppers, Tomato & Eggs)
Turkish menemen with soft-cooked eggs simmered right into a skillet of peppers, tomato, paprika, and a little feta.

Menemen is Turkey's answer to shakshuka, and in most homes it's breakfast, lunch, or a late-night fix all at once: peppers and tomatoes cooked down into a soft, jammy base, then eggs cracked right on top and left to set just enough that the yolk still runs.
This version keeps the vegetable base generous so the eggs aren't doing all the work, and a light scattering of feta at the end adds a salty finish without turning the dish heavy. It's a straightforward vegetarian breakfast that comes together in one skillet, best eaten straight from the pan with warm whole-grain bread to mop up the sauce.
