Antep paste

Traditional Turkish cold appetizer, usually spicy or very spicy. It is prepared from fresh vegetables with the addition of oil, vinegar, salchi and hot pepper. At the same time, "esme" literally means "crushed" - this is also related to the consistency of the snack - it is close to pasta. Ezme, a traditional "appetiser", perfectly refreshes and stimulates the appetite before a rich Turkish meal. I did not grind until smooth, I wanted to get small pieces.

large fleshy tomatoes 3 pcs.
medium cucumber 1 pc.
red or green thin hot pepper (sivri-bieber, but preferably hot) 1 pc.
