Barbunya Pilaki
in season
A beloved example of the pilaki tradition, made with fresh or dried kidney beans cooked in olive oil with onions, garlic, carrots, and tomatoes. It is served cold and is a classic of local eateries.
Why this: Filling → orta ağırlık · richness
Table balance
Alongside
A lemon wedge and fresh bread; a heavy meat plate alongside would hide the dish entirely.
Easy to miss
Olive-oil dishes are not eaten straight from the fridge; the aroma opens near room temperature.

Ali Nazik
From Gaziantep cuisine; roasted eggplant is mashed with garlic yogurt, topped with sautéed diced meat or ground meat. The smoky flavor combines with the coolness of the yogurt on a single plate.
