Azerbaijani-style scrambled eggs with greens (Kukyu)

2 servings

10 minutes

Kukyu is one of the most recognizable dishes of Azerbaijani cuisine, combining simplicity in preparation with a rich aroma of herbs. This egg dish is not just breakfast but a true gastronomic story rooted in ancient Caucasian traditions. It is based on a mix of fresh herbs like dill, cilantro, and parsley that give the dish incredible freshness and lightness. Garlic adds zest while butter provides a delicate texture. Eggs bind all components together, creating an airy consistency. Kukyu is served with yogurt or sour cream, softening the taste and making it even richer. It’s an ideal dish for a light snack or a full lunch that offers a sense of warmth and comfort of Eastern hospitality.
