What is Menemen with double-yolk egg?

Menemen with double-yolk egg is a Turkish pan-cooked dish of eggs with tomatoes and green peppers. The vegetables soften and release their juices before the eggs are stirred in, though some cooks leave the yolks partly intact for a richer, softer finish. It is a home-style favourite rather than a dish with one fixed recipe.

In Turkey, it is most often served hot at breakfast, with bread for scooping up the saucy vegetables, and commonly shared straight from the pan. The double yolk makes the texture especially rich, while the tomatoes and peppers keep the flavour bright. It provides protein as well as vitamins A and C; pair it with a crisp salad or use less oil if you want a lighter plate.
