"Salty Cake" (Breakfast or Brunch cake)
I'm not really sure if that if a good title for this recipe... It's another Turkish recipe and it was prepared for my by my friend Hulya. These measurements might need a bit of adjusting as well since she measures ingredients with her drinking glasses =) That's the Turkish way though!
I think this is great as a snack or to prepare the day before for a 'to-go breakfast the next day.
1 leek
1 carrot
1 potato
1/2 -3/4 c ground or chopped meat (turkey sausage, beef, pepperoni, turkey bacon, etc.)
Wash, peal, and chop into fingertip sized bits, mix together with with about 1 tsp of salt, and set aside.
3 eggs
3/4 c milk
3/4 c canola or sunflower oil
1 tsp salt
1 1/2- 2 c flour
Mix together and add just enough of the flour to make it like cake batter. The first time I made it I think I had too much flour then I had to compensate with more milk.. lost a bit of the flavor that way I believe..
Blend with a mixer for a couple of min. then add the raw, chopped veggies by spoon. Pour batter into an oiled baking pan. Optional is to top it with sesame seeds (and/or black sesame seeds). Perhaps towards the end of the baking cycle, you could top with cheese instead.
Bake in the oven at 350 degrees til done. I believe it was about 45 or 1 hr. I will time it better next time and update the blog with that info. A knife should come out clean from the middle and it should be lightly browned on top.
Notes: I didn't have leek so I used a small onion and I also added in some mushrooms. The meat that I used, and that is called for in the original recipe is a Turkish hard beef and garlic sausage called sucuk. (pronounced sue-jueck)
