Quoting ramayan:

and tavada yumurta or kızarmış yumurta its same...dont worry...if u can say all these u learnt any turkısh waiter can get u easily...afiyet olsun...if u dunno i can give menemen's recipe



I think I could order boiled egg or fried egg in Türkçe but not scrambled or poached which happen to be my preferred ways of eating eggs :-S

And don't just sit there - getting posting a recipe for menemen on the Turkish Recipes forum

Quoting MissHelen:

I think it's because the eggs are normally served *in* the pan (tava) - a li'l shallow metal dish.



Ah!
Yes of course that makes sense

I looked at tavada and saw dative state whereas it is really locative state :-S

You made me laugh so hard when I read your answer about the midye tava, ramayan. lol Dude, you are too funny!
I would really like to know what menemen is. I looked for the word in the dictionary, but couldn't find it. I would love to know your recipe.

'scrambled egg' is 'çırpılmış yumurta' and probably what deli_kizin ate in turkey is 'kaygana'

Bod this seems to complicate things further

I was just talking to Kadir, and the thing i ate was called 'TORTU'. But he thinks not many people will know it, as it is the speciality of a village, which name he does not know.

It is prepared with milk and egg, and its name is Tortu. That's all i know. I couldn't find any good sources on the net so far.
