Turkish Manti from scratch! 🇹🇷😍

Now this one’s really interesting! Think of it as Turkey’s answer to ravioli. The dough comes together really quickly with just 3 ingredients. The filling is incredible and the sauces are equally as delicious. The spiced butter and creamy yogurt work beautifully together
😍🇹🇷

1. Add 300g minced lamb to a bowl and season with sea salt, black pepp, 1tsp sumac, 1tsp cayenne, 1tsp ground cumin, 1tbsp roasted red pepper paste, 1 grated white onion, 2 cloves grated garlic + a bunch of chopped parsley, chives and touch of mint
2. Mix to combine and leave to marinate in fridge whilst you prep the dough
3. For the dough: combine 300g AP flour, sea salt, 1 large egg, 120ml cold water - mix to combine, then knead with your hands on floured surface
4. Keep kneading till it forms a smooth ball, then cut into two and rest in a bowl under a damp cloth for 30 mins
5. Once rested, roll out till super thin, then cut into evenly sized little squares
6. The filling for these is tiny - just take 0.5-1tsp of lamb and place into the centre of the squares. Dab each corner with water, then press the corners in to each other to form the manti - small gaps between the seams is totally fine
7. Set aside on a floured tray, then prep the garlic yogurt and spiced butter
8. Combine 200g Greek yogurt with 2 cloves grated garlic, sea salt, black pepper, chopped dill and splash of olive oil - mix to combine and season to taste
9. Throw manti into salted boiling water - simmer 3-4 mins, then strain and plate before starting the butter
10. Add yogurt to a plate along with the cooked manti and a little more yogurt
11. Grab 250g of @allthingsbutter__ and cut into cubes. Add to a pan and bring to med-high, then add 1tbsp tomato paste, 1tsp Calabrian chilli, 1tsp roasted pepper paste, thyme, 1tbsp Aleppo pepper - mix till foaming
12. Spoon over the sizzling butter and garnish with parsley and lemon zest

These are incredibly tasty. The filling is rich and meaty. The yogurt is cooling and fresh. The spiced butter coats your mouth and brings that needed heat and warmth. Enjoy! #notoriousfoodie 🙅🏽‍♂️
