Overview
With fuss-free and flavourful recipes for dishes from the firin (bakery) to the kahvalti evi (breakfast houses), ocakbasi (fireside), sokak (street), and more, this is a dynamic collection of more than 90 recipes that takes readers on a journey through Istanbul, showing just how satisfying and straightforward cooking its food can be.
Including the likes of Börekitas (smoked aubergine pastries), Balik Ekmek (grilled fish sandwich),Çerkez Ravugu (Circassian chicken with walnut sauce), and Irmik Helvasi (buttery semolina halva), every dish prioritises flavour and ease of execution, as well as showcasing the multicultural influences that have made Istanbul’s food scene what it is today. This is Özlem Warren’s heartfelt tribute to a city that has animated so much of her cooking, and a warm celebration of making and sharing its delicious food.
