Disadvantages: none

Today I would like to share two Turkish starters for your tables. If you like these I will write more in the future.
First one is vegetable one , this recipy is for a small one but you can make it for as many people you like you can even use it next to your main dish.

2 oberjines
5 potatos, normal ones
2 zucchini
5 paprica , or turkish biber
some mushrooms , thats if you wish
some parsley
salt

one table spoon of tomatoe paste
one table spoon of olive oil
one frying oil
one frying pan
one deep plate or a glass container
one deep pan
one normal pan

firstly cut the potatoes in small dice shape , and then ad little salt , and fry them ,
once fryed put them in side the deep container and spread them across , do two layers .
then cut the oberjines in thin circle shape and fry them , but make sure you take them out when they begin to turn crispy , but not to crispy .
once fryed add them on top of the potatoes and spread them out .

then cut the zucchini in thin circle shapes and fry them too , but take them out when they go a little crispy.
and add them on top of the oberjines and spread it out across the container.
now cut the much rooms in two halfs and fry them too , and put them on top of the zucchini and spread them out too.

now cut the papricas in long thin slices , you should have bowl full of thin papricas , then fry them too, and take them out when they are soft and a little crispy. and put them on top of the mushrooms . and spread them out.
The sauce

peal the tomatoes skin and cut them in small cube shape and place them on the pan , add one table spoon of tomatoe paste and one table spoon of olive oil , and cook it untill it turns very soft and watery. But stir it as you are cooking it.
once finish add the sauce on top of the fryed paprica and spread the sauce .
let it to cool down for one hour and ad some parsley leafs for decoration putpose.
at the end you should have layers of the above vegetables with a tomatoe sauce on top.

Hope you like it .
The second starter is called CACIK

you will need 2 cucomber
greek , or turkish yogut
1 piece of garlik , thats if ou wish , I dont personally like garlik.
mint seasonning
get a grater and slice the cucomber in very thin shapes ,once finished get a deep bowl and add the cucomber and then add the yogurt and cut the garlik in very minute small pices and add it tooo.
now mix it all up .

get a flat plate and spread the mixture and flatten it .
Then get mint seasonning and sprincle it on top of the mixture , making a cross shape .
hope you will like these starters

Summary: great starters for your table
