What is Curd cheese sautéed with red pepper?

Curd cheese sautéed with red pepper is a simple, home-style preparation of Turkish lor, a mild, fresh curd cheese with a soft, crumbly texture. The cheese is warmed in a pan with red pepper, whose gentle sweetness contrasts with lor’s clean, slightly tangy taste. It is best served warm, while the peppers still have a little bite.

In Turkey, it can appear at breakfast alongside bread, olives and tea, or make an easy light meal with a salad. It is a protein-rich, low-carbohydrate savoury option; use just a little oil in the pan if you want to keep it lighter. Fresh herbs such as parsley work well stirred in just before serving.
