Turkish
[edit]
Etymology
[edit]From Ottoman Turkish پلكی (plaki, pilaki), from Greek πλακί (plakí).
Pronunciation
[edit]
Noun
[edit]pilaki (definite accusative pilakiyi, plural pilakiler)
- A dish of (usually) beans or seafood, cooked in a savoury sauce of tomato paste, chopped onions, garlic and typically chopped carrots and potatoes, sauteed in olive oil, served cold.
Usage notes
[edit]In compound nouns of which this term is the head and the modifier is a term for the main ingredient, the head does (unlike what is usual in Turkish compound nouns) not take the possessive form. For example, a pilaki based on borlotti beans is called barbunya pilaki, not *barbunya pilakisi.
