This erik (greengage) recipe uses chicken rather than beef. The combination of sour erik & sweet honey works perfectly.

Instructions

  1. Add the olive oil to a frying pan and heat gently before adding your onion.
  2. Gently sauté the onion until it starts to sweat.
  3. Now add your chicken and sauté until cooked.
  4. Add your honey and stir into the juices before adding your salça (tomato puree).
  5. Give the mixture a good stir so that the salça has coated your chicken and onion.
  6. Now add the hot water and allspice and stir until you have a sauce.
  7. Add your whole garlic cloves and simmer for 10 minutes.
  8. Now add your erik (greengage) and simmer for another 10 minutes.
  9. Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 220 degrees Celsius.
  10. Add your erik tavası to a shallow ovenproof dish so that your greengages are peeping out of the sauce.
  11. Place in the top of the oven for 4-5 minutes until your erik brown slightly.

Notes

  • As with all of our recipes, the calorie count is a guideline. It depends how much or how little you use of each ingredient.
  • Some erik tavası recipes don't use any sweetening ingredients so you can leave out the sugar or honey if you like.
  • You want your erik (greengage) to remain whole so keep an eye on them as they are simmering.
  • We finished our erik tavası off in the oven but this is optional. You can serve it straight from the pan if you wish.
  • Feel free to add more hot water to your erik tavası if you want a thinner sauce.
