Vegetable Tarator With Walnuts (with walnut) Recipe

Vegetable Tarator With Walnuts

Tarator, one of the most popular appetizers of Mediterranean and Turkish cuisine, is said to have ancient Greek and Venetian origins. The main ingredients of the classic tarator are walnuts, breadcrumbs (or bulgur), strained yoghurt and garlic. However, when made with seasonal vegetables, it can be a wonderful and healthy main dish. Enjoy your meal!

Ingredients:

For: 4 People
Prep: 15 Min
Cook: 10 Min
Zucchini 2   Qty
Carrot 2   Qty
Strained Yogurt 1   Cup
Yogurt 1   Cup
Walnut 1   Cup
Salt 1   Qty
Olive Oil 1   Half Cup
Garlic (crushed) 3   Clove
Dill (Or Parsley) 4   Sprig

Steps:

  1. Peel and grate the carrots and zucchini. Get two separate pans. Heat half of the olive oil in one pan and half in the other pan. Roast them separately to keep them slightly firm so that their colors do not mix.
  2. While the vegetables are cooling, peel and crush the garlic. Put the yoghurt and garlic in a bowl and whisk until it reaches a smooth consistency.
  3. Set aside 5-6 walnuts to decorate. Chop the rest finely with a knife. Do not go through the rondo. It should be large enough to fit the tooth.
  4. Add the cooled vegetables to the whipped garlic yoghurt and mix. Add salt and chili pepper if you wish. Put the tarator in the refrigerator and let it rest for at least 1-2 hours.
  5. Drizzle the vegetable tarator on a serving plate with olive oil, garnish with dill or parsley and serve cold. Enjoy your meal!
  6. Note: You can serve this recipe as an appetizer, as well as spread it on bread for breakfast, make canapés or use it as a dipping sauce.
