Sounds like a Turkish dish
i didn't even know the word "bayildi"
Probably time to visit the dentist
Yes, chef.
What meat do you serve with this dish?
Assuming chicken or a white fish?
"add the c u next Tuesdays"
I will try this one. I was not expecting the currants, but I think they will work well!
He said “shrinkage”….😭😭😭😭
But do women know about shrinkage?
In Greece, and i think also in turkey, we dont dice up the aubergines but rather just slice them on one side, fry or bake them until they are soft and then use the sauce to fill them and put them into the oven. This is an interesting variation.
Fun fact:
"Imam bayildi" means "the imam fainted" in Turkish. According to legend, an imam (a Muslim religious leader) fainted either from how delicious the dish was, from shock at the cost of the expensive olive oil used, or from how much of it his wife used. I also heard that he fainted because it was so tasty.
Μαλακίες τούμπανο
Next he’ll make binglet trepaldi
I'm always thinking of shrinkage my friend, always
Ya bunch of currants.
Hmmm nah. Looks like itd be a weird sweet savory mess
Id sub if it was actually marcos channel
The water was cold. There was some shrinkage
As a Turk, this is how imam bayildi is made if it were a tutorial on how imam bayildi is not made. It looks good, but this is not imam bayildi 🤷🏻♂️

This is NOT. I repeat NOT. And I emphasize It is NOT imam bayildi!
Imam bayildi is a Turkish dish and it is done with whole eggplants in original. This dish is something else. A kind of meze, a side dish eaten with alcohol. Not imam bayildi at all.
