Coincidentally, we went out for Turkish food last night. The veg of the
day was peas cooked in tomato sauce. Although they were barely still
green and were quite soft, I found them quite enjoyable. The entire
order was:

Him:

Tossed salad
Lentil soup
Braised ground lamb on a puddle of roasted eggplant paste (similar
to Sultan's Delight, but with ground lamb: <https://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/braised-lamb-over-silky-eggplant-puree-sultans-delight-105018>)
Rice and vermicelli pilaf

Me:
Anatolian soup (a hot yogurt soup flavored with mint and hot peppers; it
also contained what the waiter described as "wheat berries")
Roasted salmon crusted with pistachios
Bulgur pilaf
Peas cooked in tomatoes
