Do you know what this Turkish Dish is?!
Answers: Once at my old friend's house we had a dish that was plain yogurt with a fried egg on top of it. Her and her family are Turkish, and I was wondering if this was some sort of Turkish dish. Any ideas?
??lb?r is a Turkish dish of eggs with yoghurt. Traditionally the eggs are poached but modern versions of this classic may use fried eggs.

DIRECTIONS
In a small bowl, combine the garlic, yogurt and pinch of salt; mix well.
In a large saucepan or stockpot, combine water, vinegar and 1 teaspoon salt; bring to a boil over high heat. When the water is boiling hard, reduce the heat and gently break the eggs into the water, spacing them well apart. Cook until the whites have set over the yolks, immediately remove the eggs with a slotted spoon and place on a serving dish.
