Menemen with Bone Broth is a Turkish egg dish cooked with tomatoes and peppers, with bone broth added to the pan. It keeps the familiar soft, saucy texture of menemen while bringing a savory, broth-like note.
Cook chopped peppers and tomatoes in a pan until softened, then add bone broth and let the mixture reduce slightly. Crack in the eggs and cook gently, stirring or leaving them whole according to the texture you prefer.
Add the bone broth after the tomatoes and peppers have softened but before adding the eggs. Let it simmer briefly so the pan does not become watery, then cook the eggs in the reduced mixture.
Yes, Menemen with Bone Broth has a deeper, more savory flavor than regular menemen because the broth adds a meat-like note. Use a mild broth if you want the tomatoes and peppers to remain the main flavors.
Menemen with Bone Broth can turn watery when the tomatoes release a lot of juice or too much broth is added. Simmer the tomato mixture before adding the eggs, and add broth gradually rather than pouring it all in at once.
Yes, Menemen with Bone Broth can be made with or without onions. Onion is a common variation, not a requirement; if using it, soften it in the pan before adding the peppers and tomatoes.
A mild, unsalted or lightly salted broth works best in Menemen with Bone Broth. It lets the tomato, pepper, and egg flavors come through, and makes it easier to control the dish’s final seasoning.
Serve Menemen with Bone Broth with crusty bread to scoop up the eggs and sauce, or with a simple salad for a lighter meal. Olives and cheese also make it feel like a Turkish-style breakfast spread.
Yes, cheese works in Menemen with Bone Broth. Crumble feta or add grated cheese near the end of cooking so it softens without disappearing into the sauce; taste before adding salt, since both cheese and broth can be salty.
You can freeze Menemen with Bone Broth, but the eggs may become grainy and the sauce may separate after thawing. Freeze it in a sealed portion, thaw it in the refrigerator, and reheat it thoroughly in a pan.

Menemen with Bone Broth is a Turkish skillet breakfast: tomatoes and green peppers are cooked with bone broth, then gently set with eggs. Whether to add onion is a matter of household and regional preference, but the dish is usually served hot, straight from the pan.
Its soft, saucy texture and tangy tomato flavour make it a natural fit for breakfast, often with bread and tea in Turkey. For a lighter, lower-carbohydrate plate, serve it with sliced vegetables or greens instead of much bread. It provides protein and collagen, with 6.5 g of protein per 100 g, and makes a hearty warm meal. Adjust the amount of broth and oil to get the consistency you like.
