Cheese is loved by all in Turkey, its one food that doesnt separate the rich & poor, its always found in ever Turkish household & breakfast isnt complete without it.While feta is usually most preferred for its price and versatility, we also have ‘tulum‘, ‘kasar‘ (similar to mozerella), ‘cokelek‘ (parmesan but salty & very hard) & Lor (Haloumi) – but these type of cheese are more expensive and used for breakfast.
Last night we had guests over and among my other bakes/sweets, I made this super quick & easy feta cheese cake. Its not a large cake but very filling, perfect for picnics, snack & best of all my kids just had leftovers for breakfast!
Ingredients
1 cup of yoghurt
1 cup olive or vegetable oil
3 eggs
100grams of feta cheese
1 bunch of parsley (i didnt use parsley)
3 cups of self raising flour
sesame seeds
Instructions
- Beat all 3 eggs until its light & frothy
- Mix in the remaining ingredients (except the sesame seeds) – mum said it has to be lumpy but I still found it dry so I secretly added 2 tablespoon of yoghurt and it didnt affect my cake at the end.
- Pour the mix into a well greased tray- I used my Pyrex glass tray, sprinkle the sesame seeds all over the top
- Bake at 175 degrees for 40 minutes -
