Küpoglu – Smoky Aubergine with a Creamy Twist

Lesser-known to the general public but cherished in Turkish and Kurdish homes, Küpoglu is a traditional mezzé made with grilled eggplant, roasted red peppers, and a delicate yogurt-garlic sauce. It embodies the rustic elegance of home cooking: simple ingredients, carefully prepared to bring out their full depth of flavor.

At Derya, we make Küpoglu the Mediterranean way: the eggplant is soft and perfectly smoky, the vegetables are lovingly marinated, and the creamy yogurt balances the dish with freshness and lightness. Served cold, this mezzé is a true celebration of sun-kissed, generous cuisine — ideal as a starter or a refreshing side to your grilled dishes.

A humble plate, yet unforgettable.
