Baklava

DESSERT: Turks have a sweet tooth and there are lots of sticky, gooey desserts to choose from. Among the most famous sweets is baklava, made from flaky pastry filled with pistachio and drowned in honey. Baklava and sweet boregi are eaten as snacks with coffee in the many patisseries across the country. Another delicious dessert is firinda sutlac, a baked rice pudding, which is particularly good along the Black Sea coast. More often, a platter of fresh melon, peaches, apricots, mandarin oranges, pears and apples will follow a meal.

OFF THE GRILL

Kebabs, or kebaps, are dishes of plain or marinated meat either stewed or grilled. Almost every district of Anatolia has its own kebap specialty. The most popular ones are Doner kebab, which is sliced roast meat, Ôis kebab, cubes of lamb grilled on a skewer, and Iskender, spicy Doner meat on bread with a rich tomato and yogurt sauce. The best by far is the Patlican, or eggplant, kebab.
