Cook beaten eggs in a lightly oiled pan over medium-low heat. When they begin to set, fold in crumbled lor and grated kashar, then cook until the eggs are fully set and the cheese is warm.
The basic mixture combines eggs with kashar, a Turkish semi-hard cheese, and lor, a fresh Turkish curd cheese. Pepper or herbs may be added, but there is no single fixed recipe for this home-style dish.
No. Lor is a Turkish fresh curd cheese and is not exactly the same as ricotta, though both are mild and soft. Lor can be drier and more crumbly, so the mixture’s texture may differ.
Kashar is a Turkish semi-hard cheese, usually made from cow’s milk, with a mild, savory taste and a good melting quality. Grated kashar gives the egg mixture a stretchy, creamy element that lor alone does not provide.
An egg, kashar and lor cheese mixture centers on two cheeses, while menemen is traditionally made with tomatoes and often peppers. This cheese mixture is commonly cooked without tomatoes and has a softer, curd-like texture.
Add grated kashar after the eggs have started to set, then stir gently until it melts. Adding it too early can leave the cheese cooking for longer than needed and make the eggs overcooked.
Serve it with fresh tomatoes, cucumber, olives, herbs, or bread for a Turkish-style breakfast. The dish is already rich in cheese, so fresh vegetables make a useful contrast without adding another salty side.
Refrigerate leftovers promptly in a covered container and eat them within three to four days. If the cooked mixture has sat at room temperature for more than two hours, discard it rather than saving it.
Yes, but freezing can make the eggs and lor watery or grainy after thawing. Freeze it in small airtight portions, thaw it in the refrigerator, and reheat it thoroughly before eating.
Yes, children can eat it when the eggs are fully cooked and the cheeses are suitable for them. Keep the portion mild and avoid adding extra salt, since kashar can already make the mixture salty.

Egg, Kashar and Lor Cheese Mixture combines eggs with kashar, a Turkish semi-hard cheese, and lor, a soft, fresh curd cheese. It is usually cooked in a pan, either folded like an omelette or stirred into a soft scramble; the proportions and texture vary from household to household.
In Turkey, it is most often served hot at breakfast with bread and tea, though it also makes a quick meal at other times. The eggs and cheeses make it a filling, protein-rich dish, with a fairly rich texture. For a lighter version, use a little less kashar and add chopped herbs or vegetables such as peppers and tomatoes.
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.
