Eat Turkish Ravioli in Istanbul
Mantı is a typical Turkish meal that you must have at least once when visiting Istanbul. It's commonly referred to as Turkish ravioli with yoghurt, but that's a disservice to this delectable delicacy.
Finding the best mantı in town is the key. This entails locating establishments that provide the handcrafted version, complete with delectable fillings and toppings. But don't worry, we'll show you how to get there.
Mantı can be compared to dumplings in various ways. The dough and the filling are the two components of the ingredients. Water, flour, and salt are used to make the dough. To add taste, some people like to add eggs.
Despite the fact that the components are basic, creating mantı the right manner is a time-consuming task. Making thin sheets of dough, cutting them into 1 or 1,5 centimeter squares, and then putting the kneaded filling in the center and wrapping the dough in little bundles is a time-consuming operation. According to mythology, if a spoonful of mantı has less than 40 pieces, the single girl who prepares it is not a suitable bride-to-be.
Manti Restaurants in Istanbul
Casita and the newer Kaşık-la are two of our favorite mantı eateries. The latter is said to have developed in Kayseri, which is known as the "birthplace of mantı." Unfortunately, both are outside of Beyoglu or Sultanahmet, although they are easily accessible via taxi or public transit.
