This Turkish delicacy features a smoky eggplant purée blended with garlic yogurt and butter, topped with tender cubes of marinated lamb stew, served with slices of Turkish bread. The lamb is aromatic, juicy, and has a slightly tangy sweetness without any gamey taste. Each bite of lamb releases rich, flavourful juices, though the meat’s semi-tough chewiness might not appeal to everyone. The eggplant purée adds both texture and balance to the dish’s meatiness, though it is a bit salty. Despite these minor drawbacks, the meaty flavour kept me coming back for more.
