Oil-free menemen with lean beef is a Turkish pan-cooked dish of eggs, tomatoes and peppers, with lean kavurma added for a hearty, savoury finish. Menemen is especially associated with breakfast in Turkey, where the ingredients are cooked together until the vegetables soften and the eggs are just set. “Oil-free” means no extra cooking oil is added, though the beef may contribute some fat.
Serve it hot, often with bread for dipping and tea alongside; it also works as a simple lunch or supper. The beef and eggs make it a protein-rich choice, while the tomato and pepper keep the dish fresh-tasting. For a lighter meal, pair it with a salad or serve it with less bread.
