Turkish Eggs (Çilbir)
I did follow a recipe and I think it turned out pretty good! Instead of Greek yogurt, as I saw so many recipes using, I used Labneh. Which I thought tasted really Creamy and cream cheese like. I enjoyed it. I will try greek yogurt next time just to see which flavour profile I prefer.
My first time poaching eggs and they turned out perfectly. I used Downshiftology's instructions. I personally think she has the best tips for cooking.
I used an olive oil/butter mixture for the aleppo pepper sauce on top. And sprinkled on fresh dill along with a little bit of lemon zest. And good artisan bread for dipping.
Next time I will attempt to make the traditional style of turkish bread for this.

    One of my favorites! I poach eggs in the microwave, submerged in a dish of water. Takes about a minute and I think they stay more cohesive.

    I don’t like this one. Made this thrice and it just doesn’t taste good 😬
