A labour of love from Erzurum's tables, this manti is made by cutting thinly rolled dough into small squares and filling them with spiced minced beef. Finished with garlicky yoghurt and melted butter, the presentation is what sets this manti apart from other regional versions.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Make the dough

5 min

Knead the flour, egg, water and salt into an elastic dough.

2

Let it rest

10 min

Wrap the dough and let it rest at room temperature for 10 minutes.

3

Prepare the filling

8 min

Mix the minced beef with the onion and black pepper.

4

Cut and fill

15 min

Roll the dough thin and cut into small squares, place a little filling in the centre of each and seal.

5

Boil

10 min

Boil in salted water for 10 minutes, then drain.

6

Serve

5 min

Mix the garlic cloves into the yoghurt and spoon it over the dumplings, then drizzle with melted butter and pepper flakes before serving.

Reminder

Always let the dough rest before rolling it; unrested dough isn't elastic and tears while sealing. Allergens: contains wheat (gluten), egg, and milk and dairy.

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

The smaller you cut the squares, the shorter the cooking time but the longer the folding takes; if you're short on time, I'd suggest cutting slightly larger squares.

Kareleri çok küçük kestim, editör notundaki uyarıyı okumamıştım, katlama neredeyse bir saatimi aldı ve dört porsiyonu tek başıma yetiştiremedim. Bir dahaki sefere daha büyük keseceğim.
