    Hi Refika, we used to do this recipe in Egypt with name of "Egge", but we add Soda Bicarbonate, extra eggs and bake it in the oven, some people add small amount of cooked rice in it. It is a great recipe can be done any time :)

      I confirm what Ibrahim said above.
      The name 'Egge عجة starts with a consonant that does not exist in Turkish. It is in Semitic languages (e.g. Arabic, ...) and is the first consonant in the original name of Antep عينتاب too.
      It is always done with eggs and any vegetables (spinach, onions, green onions, parsley, ...)
      So it is more like an egg frittata than a fritter.
      There are also very similar Syrian versions (Ejjeh).

    Green garlic is the flavour of spring from my childhood. My dad used to make spring salad with fresh radishes, lettice and lots of spring onion and garlic, lots of herbs and hardboiled eggs, it was like spring on your plate flagrant, tender and fresh. Come the end of Winter your soul craves fresh green flavours. In UK they don't sell spring garlic, but I grow mine in a container on my balcony. Just plant unpeeled cloves of garlic and watch them grow, 😋

    Sometimes I find it difficult to pull past season plants to make room for the next season.
    This year (for the first time ever) I had a ridiculous amount of parsley. I didn’t want to send it to the compost bin but I couldn’t imagine how to use it while it remained fresh (too busy right now to dehydrate and save).
    And then as if on queue, here you are to show me the light… ÖCCE!
    I just made it and it is delicious! Thank you for this gift, Refika! ❤

    We make a similar thing called sokhov mokhov dapag, which means fried onions with an extra rhyming word for fun, but it’s made with chopped parsley and scallions and sometimes mint, with just enough egg to hold it together, pan fried like small flat pancakes 5-8 cm in diameter. It’s one of my son’s favourite foods!

    Oh my goodness!!! Refika, this your recipe came up at the right time 😅😅. My husband and I were asked to eat certain green veges for health reasons. We were given list of what to eat and I have the impression that he bought all the vegetables in the supermarket that I don't have space to store all of these stuffs. There is this big round ball like vegetable they call "chou frisé". I have precisely 7 of them and so confused 🙄 on how to store or cook them. I only know of soup recipes with this particular vegetable. Your today recipe came in at the right time 👍. I just hope that it will turn out good using your recipe with this green " chou frisé " 😅. Triple bises to you & your crew 😘😘

    In Tunisia,there are loads of names of dishes that come from turkish, today I learn a new one❤❤❤, so here s a small list:
    Brik, obviously Börek but different, a special filo sheet shaped into a square stuffed with tuna egg parsley closed like a triabgle and fried.
    LABLEBI, street food chickpeas soup with stale bread harissa and granishes, it is an evolution of an ottoman army dish.
    KAFTEJI, a street food favorite too, a mixture of fried potato, tomato, hot pepper with or without pumkin, it used to be served as a side dish in köfteci (kofte shops)
    Now Ojja (in arabic, it is written the same way as OCCA in osmanli turkish with the first letter ع becoming silent in latin script ), tunisian Ojja is basically a Menemen with more ingredients. The turkish Occa is called kefta in Tunisia.
    The Tunisian Beys (Ottoman rulers) were not the ones responsible for the spread of turkish culinary delicacies, hence the abscence of royal dishes. They rather ate Italian and Berber inspired meals, the turkish influence is more evident on street food and it was explained by some historians by the presence of military personnel on long term deployment in Tunisia during the Spanish reconquista.
