Fried eggplant (Turkish: Patlıcan kızartma[4] or Patlıcan kızartması[5][6]) is found in Turkish cuisine. It is such a common dish during summer months that this season used to be called patlıcan kızartma ayları (fried eggplant months)[7] in Ottoman Istanbul, where this generalized frying caused huge fires and destroyed entire mahalles due to the abundance of old wooden houses.[8][9] The dish is usually eaten with a garlic yogurt or tomato sauce.
