Patlıcan Közde — Smoke-Charred Eggplant with Garlic Yogurt
This is the dish I reach for first when the grill is still roaring and friends are settling in around the table. We've been burning eggplant over open flame in Istanbul for centuries — blackening the skin until it cracks and weeps, coaxing that deep, sweet smoke into the flesh. A spoonful of sharp garlic yogurt alongside, good olive oil pooling over everything, and suddenly nobody is in a hurry to eat anything else. #turkish #eggplant #yogurt #vegetarian #meze #grilled
