Herb sauté with curd cheese is a home-style Turkish dish of seasonal edible herbs or greens cooked in a pan and finished with lor, a mild, fresh curd cheese. The particular greens vary with the season and region, and some versions start with onion or use a little oil.
The soft, lightly tangy cheese balances the greens’ fresh, sometimes earthy flavour. In Turkey, it may be served at breakfast or as part of a simple meal with bread and yoghurt; elsewhere, it works well as a savoury brunch dish or a vegetable side. It offers protein and calcium while remaining relatively low in carbohydrates, with 4.1 g per 100 g. Use oil sparingly for a lighter result.
