In Doy’s garden

Log it in Doydum and a row of tomatoes sprouts in today’s bed in front of Doy’s house.

Karnıyarık, meaning split belly, is fried eggplant slit open and filled with minced meat, onion, tomato and peppers, then baked in a thin tomato sauce. It is a Turkish home favourite, usually served hot with rice pilaf and yogurt.

Most of the fat goes in while the eggplant fries, so baked or grilled eggplant versions come out lower.
