Chickpea, Curd Cheese and Egg Simit brings together simit, the sesame-coated ring bread associated with Turkey, and a filling of chickpeas, curd cheese and egg. The bread is crisp outside and pleasantly chewy inside, while the toppings make it a substantial, savoury meal.
In Turkey, simit is a familiar breakfast and street-food choice, often enjoyed with tea; this heartier version also works for lunch or a quick meal elsewhere. Chickpeas contribute fibre, while the cheese and egg add protein: it provides 12.1 g of protein per 100 g. Pair it with fresh tomatoes or a leafy salad for a more balanced plate, or share one serving if you want something lighter.
