Turkish dumplings, known as "mantı," are a beloved staple of Anatolian cuisine. These bite-sized pockets of dough are traditionally filled with a mixture of ground beef or lamb, finely chopped onions, and spices such as salt and black pepper. After being boiled, they are typically served warm and topped with a creamy, tangy yogurt sauce, garlic, and a drizzle of melted butter infused with red pepper flakes or sumac. Rich in protein from the meat and yogurt, mantı offers a satisfying meal. However, it can be calorie-dense due to the combination of dough, meat, and butter, making portion control important for balanced consumption. Variations include vegetarian fillings with spinach or potatoes, which can reduce fat content. Mantı is both a comforting and culturally significant dish tied to Turkey's culinary heritage, reflecting its warmth and complexity.
