Bagel with Olives
Hello dear friends,
I had a nice and enjoyable weekend. This time, I carried my diet materials for breakfast with me. We went to see the movie adapted from the first book of the hunger games series that I read a long time ago on Sunday afternoon. The Hunger Games was a very good movie for those who read the book, they didn't go into too much detail, but it's worth watching. If you haven't read the book, many things may be left in the air because the book is incredibly gripping and detailed. For this reason, I recommend you to read the series and I am sure that you will not be able to put it down even in the first book.
On Saturday morning, we went to my mother's for breakfast, I prepared a bagel with olives for breakfast. The recipe is pretty simple, yeast does all the work.
Molasses and sesame also give a real simit feel. You can diversify the bagels you will prepare by preparing different fillings, just like in bagel cafes. For example, it would be great with cheese and sausage or mixed.
Greetings from a sunny and beautiful Istanbul morning…
