Purslane salad with yogurt and figs is made by tossing clean, well-dried purslane with seasoned yogurt and adding sliced figs. Garlic is a common option, and a little olive oil works well. Add the figs just before serving to keep their texture.

Purslane Salad with Yogurt and Figs combines crisp, slightly tangy purslane leaves with creamy yogurt and the mellow sweetness of figs. It is a simple, Turkish-style salad that makes use of a leafy green often gathered or grown in warm weather; the exact balance of ingredients varies from kitchen to kitchen.
Serve it chilled as a side, a meze-style starter or a light lunch, especially alongside grilled vegetables, bread or other Mediterranean dishes. The leaves stay pleasantly succulent, while the figs soften the yogurt’s tang. Purslane brings fibre and omega-3, and yogurt makes the salad more filling. For a lighter dressing, loosen plain yogurt with a little water and let the figs provide most of the sweetness.
