To make egg, sucuk and kashar cheese bread, place sucuk and grated kashar on bread, add the egg, then bake until the egg is set and the cheese has melted. You can crack the egg onto the bread or beat it first and pour it over.
It is best to briefly cook the sucuk in a pan first. It releases some of its fat and starts to brown, which helps keep the bread from getting greasy or soggy before the egg and kashar finish cooking.
Thick slices of sturdy white bread or sourdough work well for egg, sucuk and kashar cheese bread because they can hold the toppings. Very thin slices may soften under the egg, while day-old bread can become pleasantly crisp when baked.
To keep egg, sucuk and kashar cheese bread from getting soggy, brown the sucuk first and drain off excess fat before adding it to the bread. Lightly toast the bread beforehand, and avoid adding more beaten egg than the slices can absorb.
Yes, egg, sucuk and kashar cheese bread can be cooked in an air fryer. Use a slice that fits flat in the basket, secure the toppings so they do not shift, and cook until the egg is set and the kashar has melted.
It can be mildly spicy, but the heat mostly comes from the sucuk used. Some sucuk is seasoned with hot pepper and some is milder, so taste the sausage first; a little extra kashar can soften the spicy flavor.
Yes, you can replace kashar in egg, sucuk and kashar cheese bread with another cheese that melts well, such as mozzarella. Feta can also work for a saltier, less stretchy topping, but use less if the sucuk is already salty.
Serve egg, sucuk and kashar cheese bread with fresh tomato, cucumber or a simple green salad to balance its rich, savory toppings. Tea is a common Turkish breakfast pairing, while extra salty sides are usually unnecessary.
Refrigerate leftover egg, sucuk and kashar cheese bread in a covered container once it has cooled, and eat it within two days. Reheat it in an oven or pan to bring back some crispness; reheating can make the egg firmer.
Yes, egg, sucuk and kashar cheese bread can make a filling breakfast because it combines bread with egg, sausage and cheese. Add fresh vegetables for a more balanced plate, or use less sucuk and cheese if you want a lighter version.

Egg, sucuk & kashar cheese bread brings together bread, egg, spiced Turkish sucuk sausage and kashar, a mild cheese that melts well. It is a Turkish-style breakfast favourite, usually cooked until the egg is set and the cheese softens into the bread. The sucuk adds a savoury, warmly spiced bite, while the bread makes each serving easy to eat by hand.
In Turkey it is often served hot at breakfast, alongside tea, tomatoes or cucumber; it also makes a filling quick meal elsewhere. It provides protein and is energy-rich, though it is not especially high in fibre. For a lighter plate, use less sucuk and cheese and add fresh vegetables or a simple salad.
