Shellfish

Oyster

Mussel

Clam

Yup..these are 3 types of shellfish commonly found in the oceans..well at least those r the ones i am familiar of....these three shellfish..they just look the same..

Back to my previous entry..Yup!! U may have guessed it right! It is mussel. The dish is called Midye Dolması (Stuffed mussel)...Turks cook loads of stuffed veggies which they call dolma.. they stuff vine leaves, bell pepper, eggplant and even Zuchinni..It is in the culture....my fav is stuffed vine leaves made by anne..no one can make it the way she did.. i try it too..but i am still not very successful..am not giving up.. even if it takes me my whole life to experiment cooking that nightmarish favourite food of mine! oh yeah...i will NOT give up!! u hear me stuffed vine leaves???!!

This is stuffed vine leaves
The picture is kidnapped from the net. (definitely, Not the one i made).
The one anne made was smaller..shorter n plummer...
No one else cooked it the way anne did..i tried but not successful still...

Back to the midye dolması (stuffed mussel).. i have never cooked it before esp since i am eating it alone..but i have typed the recipe for u all to see in Zaim ladies recipe book
Hopefully u all will get an idea on how it is cooked...
