Instructions

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
~5 min - 2
Slice the sucuk into thin rounds and chop them into smaller pieces. Finely grate the cheese.
~3 min - 3
In a frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped sucuk and cook until lightly browned and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat.
~7 min - 4
If using pre-made pizza dough, divide it into 4 equal portions. If using pide dough, shape it into 4 oval or boat-like shapes.
~2 min - 5
Place the dough portions on the prepared baking sheet. Create a slight rim around the edge of each piece.
~1 min - 6
Evenly distribute the cooked sucuk pieces over the dough bases. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes.
~2 min - 7
Carefully crack one egg into the center of each pide base, avoiding the yolk breaking if possible.
~2 min - 8
Sprinkle the grated cheese over the sucuk and around the egg.
~1 min - 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and the egg whites are set but the yolk is still slightly runny.
~12 min - 10
Remove from oven, sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley, and serve immediately.

Tips
- For an extra kick, you can add a pinch of isot pepper flakes along with the red pepper flakes.
