Turkish Breakfast “Kahvalti”, meaning before the coffee, is the name of this delicious food. In fact, the first image that comes to me about Turkish Breakfast is a full table of meals as tea, jams, olives, doughnuts, cheeses, bal kaymak (honey with clotted cream), sucuk (spicy sausage with fried eggs), simit (circular bread with sesame seed), menemen (scrambled eggs with green peppers, tomatoes and onion), fresh cucumber and tomatoes, gozleme and more.

In fact, no one can deny that Turkish tea is an emblematic hot drink from Turkey. In other words, Turkey is one of the world’s biggest consumers and producers of tea. On the other hand, Simit, also known as the Turkish bagel, is part of the Turkish culture that can be found in every corner of Istanbul, primarily in food trucks.

Therefore, tea and simit are a must in Turkish Breakfast.

In fact, it is not a secret that doughnuts are delicious. Besides just coming out from deep fried, it is an explosion of great taste that can not be beaten. That is to say, it was so good.

Sucuk spicy sausage with fried eggs

It was another must-see dish in a traditional Turkish breakfast, despite it was not my favourite if I compare it with bal kaymak, menemen or gozleme because those were unique and delicious. In fact, I still recommend eating it because it is a typical Turkish dish for breakfast.
