Kızartma

Kızartma is a Turkish dish consisting of fried vegetables. Although the combination of potatoes and chili peppers is the most popular, you can also use vegetables such as eggplants and zucchinis. The vegetables are fried in oil until they become tender, and they are then served with a thick sauce made from tomatoes, garlic, parsley, and olive oil.

In Turkey, kızartma is often made at home and for picnics because it's easy to make the dish in advance. It also makes for a great accompaniment to meat dishes.
