Instructions

  1. 1

    Put the eggs into boiling water and cook for 9-10 minutes; cool in cold water, peel and halve.

  2. 2

    Thinly slice the sucuk and cook it in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-4 minutes, turning, until lightly browned in its own fat.

  3. 3

    Slice the white cheese and kashar; slice the tomatoes and cucumber and leave the peppers whole or halve them.

  4. 4

    Mix the tahini and pekmez in a small bowl. Divide the honey with kaymak, jam, butter, walnuts and olives among separate small bowls.

  5. 5

    Slice the bread; if you like, toast it in a dry pan or on a grill for 1 minute per side.

  6. 6

    Arrange the cheeses, vegetables, eggs and sucuk with the small bowls on individual plates or on one large tray in the middle, and serve with the bread.
