Corned Beef Hash vs Menemen (Turkish Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes and Peppers)
See how these two dishes stack up, ingredient by ingredient.

🇹🇷Two questions, two answers
Both dishes start the same way, with onion softened in a blend of oil and butter, and both finish with eggs and a scattering of fresh parsley, but they head in opposite directions. Corned beef hash is all about crust: boiled potato cubes are browned until crisp, the corned beef is pressed into the pan, and whole eggs cook covered in wells so the yolks stay runny. Menemen is softer and saucier, with green peppers and tomatoes simmered down, warmed by red pepper flakes, and eggs stirred through until just set and moist.
