    Prepare the Turkish Ezme

    In a mixing bowl, combine diced tomatoes, finely chopped onion, chopped parsley, red pepper flakes, cumin, and salt. Mix well and let sit for a few minutes for the flavors to meld.

    Assemble the Mezze Platter

    Arrange the houmous, marinated peppers, Turkish ezme, and mixed olives on a large platter. Serve with pita bread or fresh veggies.
