Just to catch you the Turks in the Ottoman Empire was about 20% of the population. The others was mostly Anatolian Greeks, Armenians, Kurdish, Iranians etc. You know...all those that you g€noside them to hide the history. Also Ottoman empire had different language and different religions. Even you that you think you are Turk you really have very little chances your ancestors being Turks.

    I make this almost daily with 5 or 6 eggs depending on how hungry I am after returning home tired from work. No need for colander, and you can do it easier in a frying pan. Boil water in a kettle and pour into a frying pan about 1-1.5 inch high, crack the eggs into the water (from low height, don't drop em from high, makes em spread around in water). I don't spend time with chopping/grinding garlic, I put COLD yoghurt onto plate and spread, sprinkle garlic salt all over. Place the poached eggs on top. I use pull biber and smoked paprika in the butter. Whole dish is done in 5 mins. Cheers from Istanbul!

    The word "yoghurt" is Turkish, it is a cross between "kneaded" and "concentrated". Other words from the same root: yoghurmak: to knead yoghun: dense and so on. The spelling is modified so it represents the closest sound when read by an English speaker. Yoghurt is milk kneaded and concentrated by yeast. By the way, I am a big fan of your channel, thanks for all the hard work that goes into it.

      Okay if we talk about the word we should pronounce it right, that is "yoğurt" with letter soft g (ğ). It isn't a sound like "g", if it sounds or looks scary for non-natives (btw it's not that hard to say) you can skip or ignore the letter and try to pronounce it in that way. Yogurt is the way how English speaking people pronounce it

    Love it! A very similar dish to this one is Panagyurski Eggs which derives its name from the town of Panagyurishte in Bulgaria. The dish itself has both the yoghurt and poached eggs, however, the traditional recipe also calls for crumbled feta cheese on top and a generous coating of gently heated smoked paprika in butter. It gives it a lovely smoky and deep flavour which sets it apart from the Turkish version of the dish. Quick history: the Ottoman Empire actually ruled over Bulgaria for a very long time so it is no wonder that we share so many common dishes, recipes and ingredients. Great work Guys 🤗

BTW, pul biber has medium heat, sun dried, you can say roasted under the scorching sun in eastern Turkey in July, has smoky flavor.

    Hi, Turk here, Çılbır was not exclusive to royalty; in fact, it was and still is one of the staple foods for soldiers.
    The recipe for çılbır is found in the first printed cookbook Melceü’t-Tabbâhîn. The recipe is as follows: Fry several onions with a spoonful of olive oil and place them in a dish. Then, fill a large pan with water and bring it to a boil. Once boiling, crack five to ten eggs into the water and let them cook for a few minutes until the yolks are covered with white. Drain the water and place the eggs on top of the prepared onions. Cook a little butter until it is hot, then add cinnamon and pepper and pour it over the eggs. Sometimes, they also place these eggs on garlic yogurt with a little oil, which is also delicious.
    Still, your take is also perfect. Thanks for the video. Cheers!

    Personally I prefer nice fresh simit with my çılbır. The colour of Urfa biber/isot pepper is fantastic & the flavour makes it my favourite chili, that fruity/raisin flavour it has really sets of dishes like this so well. If you can't find proper thick yogurt at home, you can drain yogurt over night on suspended cloth. Takes away the moisture nicely. Good video though, çılbır is one of my favourite quick dishes at any time of the day or night.

But you're usually such a master of simplifying things so we "normals" can apply them...so it's surprising to me this wasn't at least *mentioned* .

  • @pulykamell

    I've been making this like 3-4 days a week for the last couple months. I use Turkish lebneh instead of yogurt, but I've used full fat Greek yogurt when I've run out -- it's a bit more sour than the buttery, almost cream-cheesy taste of lebneh (LOVE the stuff!). Absolutely delicious. It's a little better if you let the yogurt/lebneh come to room temperature, but works fine either way. I use Aleppo pepper and a bit of Hungarian paprika for a rich color, then serve with either the dried mint or finely chopped coriander and/or parsley.

  • @utkua

    Here is another pro tip, if you want Turkish garlic yogurt, mix salt with minced garlic and press them with the back of a spoon inside the dish and wait few seconds before adding yogurt, salt extracts juices therefore more flavors from garlic. Makes a difference.

    @intractablemaskvpmGy Рік тому +11

    I've gotten real good at poaching eggs. Most methods work. Some work better than others. One I tried today is first cracking your eggs into cool water with vinegar already in it. You let this sit for a few minutes before tranferring the eggs to the poaching bath. I use a skillet because the low sides make it easier to retrieve the eggs with the slotted spoon. Comes out perfect. No vinegar in the poaching bath means you don't have to rinse the eggs as some suggest.
