Frequently Asked Questions About Menemen with Burrata
What is Menemen with Burrata?
Menemen with Burrata is Turkish menemen—eggs cooked with tomato and pepper—topped with burrata, usually just before serving. The cheese adds a cool, creamy contrast to the warm, softly cooked eggs and vegetables.
How do you make Menemen with Burrata?
To make Menemen with Burrata, soften peppers in a pan, cook down chopped tomatoes, then stir in the eggs and cook them gently. Take the pan off the heat and add the burrata on top so its creamy centre stays distinct.
When should you add burrata to Menemen with Burrata?
Add the burrata to Menemen with Burrata after the eggs are cooked and the pan is off the heat. Direct, prolonged cooking can make the cheese lose its fresh, creamy texture; tear it over the top just before serving.
How is Menemen with Burrata different from traditional menemen?
Menemen with Burrata differs from traditional menemen by its finishing cheese: burrata brings a rich, creamy centre that is not part of the usual egg, tomato and pepper preparation. It is generally served on top rather than cooked into the eggs.
Can you use canned tomatoes in Menemen with Burrata?
Yes, canned tomatoes work in Menemen with Burrata, especially when fresh tomatoes are out of season. Simmer them until excess liquid has evaporated before adding the eggs, or the finished dish may turn watery.
Should the eggs in Menemen with Burrata be scrambled or left whole?
The eggs in Menemen with Burrata are usually gently stirred into the tomato and pepper mixture, though some cooks leave them in larger, softly set pieces. Avoid cooking them until dry, since the burrata is best against tender eggs.
Is Menemen with Burrata spicy?
Menemen with Burrata is not necessarily spicy; its heat comes from the pepper you choose. Use a mild green pepper for a gentler dish or add a small amount of hot pepper if you want heat to balance the creamy burrata.
What do you serve with Menemen with Burrata?
Menemen with Burrata is commonly served with crusty bread or flatbread, which is useful for scooping up the tomato mixture and burrata. For a Turkish-style breakfast, olives and tea are natural accompaniments; a simple salad also works for lunch.
Can Menemen with Burrata be made ahead?
You can prepare the tomato and pepper base for Menemen with Burrata ahead, then reheat it and cook in the eggs shortly before serving. Add the burrata only at the end; preparing the complete dish in advance softens the eggs and cheese.
Can you reheat leftover Menemen with Burrata?
Yes, you can reheat leftover Menemen with Burrata, but the eggs may become firmer and the burrata less creamy. Refrigerate leftovers promptly in a covered container, warm them gently until hot, and add fresh burrata afterward if available.

What is Menemen with Burrata?
Menemen with Burrata puts an Italian fresh cheese on Turkish menemen: eggs gently cooked with tomatoes and green peppers, then topped with burrata so its soft, creamy centre mingles with the warm vegetables. It is a contemporary variation on a familiar Turkish home-style dish, rather than a traditional pairing.
In Turkey, menemen is often served hot for breakfast with bread and tea. Elsewhere, this version also makes an easy brunch or light supper, best brought straight to the table with bread for scooping. Eggs and cheese contribute protein—8.1 g per 100 g—while the burrata makes the dish richer. For a lighter balance, use a modest amount of cheese and plenty of tomato and pepper.
