How To Make Turkish Ezme Salad (Vegan Food)

If you come to a Turkish restaurant you've probably seen this ezme salad or kind of meze serves as an appetizer. It is a hot, finely chopped tomato salad with herbs and special sauce. Very easy to make and goes extremely well with grilled meat and or fresh lavash bread.
Ingredients for Ezme Meze Salad:
2 big tomatoes
1 medium onion
2-3 mild hot or sweet green pepper
half sweet red pepper
1 clove garlic
handfull of fresh parsley, mint (optionally purple basil)
1 tbsp hot red pepper paste (It might be too hot so add it carefully or if you don't prefer you can use sweet red pepper paste too)
about 2 tbsp pomegranate molasses
about 3 tbsp olive oil
salt to taste
1 tsp dried mint

Ayşenur Hanım. In my humble opinion, you better include (Turkish Vegan Food) or only (Vegan Food) in the video titles when necessary. Your channel is simply great! As a Turk, I am so proud to see such a great work from a Turkish woman. Great representation, simple yet informative, clean, and attentive. Go Turks!!!!

Hi Aysenur, It's hard to find turkish style pepper paste where i live so i used korean pepper paste (called gochujang). It's quite different than turkish pepper paste but comes out very taste.

In this ezme salad the Urfa chili (isot) is great. Each time I go to Ístanbul I go to Eminönü to buy some turkish chili and peperone seeds. That's why in my garden in south Switzerland I can grow kilos of çarliston, kapya, acı dolma, sivri... I also ask my friends who go visit their family in Bosnia to get me some local seeds. Every summer I can cook many things, especially salads, with many many different tastes and colours! With the sivri biber (kil biber) I make yağlı turşu with coriander seeds and garlic. It would be great to shoot a video in a market in which you show and explain to your followers all the biber and what are the typical use.

Yes I buy Turkish pepper paste from the Armenian grocery store in my neighbourhood. I like the colour it adds to the meals (and the taste of course)
