Ebe yemeği is a Turkish dish made with mallow greens, usually the leaves of common mallow (Malva sylvestris). It is associated with Aegean home cooking and is commonly prepared with olive oil and onion.
Cook Ebe yemeği by gently sautéing chopped mallow leaves with onion in olive oil, then covering them to soften. Add a little water if needed, and finish with lemon; some family recipes include rice.
Ebe yemeği has a mild, leafy flavor, somewhat like other cooked greens, with a soft texture when properly simmered. Olive oil and lemon bring out its savory, slightly tangy character.
For Ebe yemeği, rinse the mallow leaves thoroughly in several changes of water because grit can cling to them. Trim any tough stems, drain the leaves, and chop them before cooking.
Yes, frozen mallow can be used for Ebe yemeği; thaw and drain it before adding it to the pan. Dried mallow can also be used if it is meant for cooking, but its texture and cooking time will differ from fresh leaves.
Rice is added to some versions of Ebe yemeği, but it is not essential to the dish. It makes the greens more substantial; add it while the leaves cook and provide enough liquid for the grains to soften.
Ebe yemeği can be served warm as a simple vegetable dish or chilled as an olive-oil meze. Lemon and plain yogurt are common accompaniments, and bread works well for soaking up the cooking juices.
Yes, spinach can stand in for mallow when making Ebe yemeği, though the result will have a different flavor and texture. Add spinach near the end because it wilts and cooks faster than many mallow leaves.
Keep leftover Ebe yemeği in a covered container in the refrigerator and eat it within a few days. Cool it promptly after cooking, and reheat only the portion you plan to serve.
Yes, cooked Ebe yemeği can be frozen in an airtight, freezer-safe container once it has cooled. Thaw it in the refrigerator and reheat thoroughly; the greens may be softer after freezing.

Ebe yemeği is a traditional Aegean dish made by cooking edible mallow greens—often gathered as wild greens—with olive oil. Home recipes vary, and may include onion; the leaves are gently cooked until tender rather than treated as a crisp salad.
It is commonly served warm or at room temperature, as part of a meal with bread and other vegetable dishes. A squeeze of lemon suits its earthy, leafy flavour. The dish is relatively light and provides fibre; it contains 80 calories per 100 g. For a more filling meal, pair it with beans or lentils, or keep the oil modest if you want a lighter serving.
High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
