Happy New Year everybody.
So sorry for this long absence, since I started taking orders and catering I really don’t have time to publish new recipes, guess one can’t get it all.
Today I tried this new recipe I’ve seen a while ago while searching through Turkish dishes,it’s a mix of many flavors together, white and red sauces and roasted eggplants gave it a really amazing taste.
