Purslane Yogurt and Tart Apple Meze is made by folding washed, chopped purslane and grated tart apple into thick plain yogurt. Season it with salt, and add garlic or olive oil if desired; combine shortly before serving to keep it from turning watery.
Purslane Yogurt and Tart Apple Meze is served cold or cool, not hot. Chilling it briefly lets the flavors come together, but mix in the apple close to serving so it stays fresh and the yogurt does not become watery.
Purslane Yogurt and Tart Apple Meze pairs well with grilled fish, roasted meat, or a spread of other small plates. Serve it with flatbread or toasted bread for scooping, or alongside grains and vegetables for a lighter meal.
No, Purslane Yogurt and Tart Apple Meze is not the same as cacık. Cacık is typically made with cucumber and yogurt, often loosened with water, while this meze gets its leafy texture from purslane and a tart note from apple.
Yes, Greek yogurt works well in Purslane Yogurt and Tart Apple Meze because its thick texture clings to the purslane. If it is especially dense, stir in a little water or plain yogurt rather than adding enough to make the meze runny.
To keep Purslane Yogurt and Tart Apple Meze from getting watery, dry the washed purslane thoroughly and start with thick yogurt. Grate and fold in the apple shortly before serving, since both chopped greens and fruit can release moisture as they sit.
No, Purslane Yogurt and Tart Apple Meze is generally made with raw purslane. Wash the leaves and tender stems carefully, dry them well, and chop them; cooking would soften the crisp texture that distinguishes the meze.
No, peeling the apple for Purslane Yogurt and Tart Apple Meze is optional. Wash it well and grate it with the skin on for extra texture, or peel it if you prefer a smoother, more delicate mixture.
Yes, you can prepare the ingredients for Purslane Yogurt and Tart Apple Meze ahead, but keep them separate until serving. Store the washed, dried purslane covered in the refrigerator and grate the apple just before mixing to limit browning and excess moisture.
Purslane Yogurt and Tart Apple Meze keeps best in a covered container in the refrigerator and is most pleasant within a day or two. The purslane softens and the mixture may release liquid over time, so stir it and check its freshness before serving.

Purslane Yogurt and Tart Apple Meze combines fresh purslane with yogurt and sharp-tasting apple. It is a cool, tangy take on meze from Turkish cooking, with the apple brightening the yogurt and the purslane bringing a gently crisp, succulent bite.
Serve it chilled as part of a meze spread, alongside grilled dishes, or as a light lunch with bread. Yogurt contributes protein, while purslane adds fibre and plant-based omega-3; a 100 g portion has about 83 calories. For a lighter version, use lower-fat yogurt and adjust the amount of apple to suit your preferred balance of tartness.
