Beyti kebab is a Turkish dish of seasoned minced meat, usually shaped around a skewer, grilled, then wrapped in thin flatbread and sliced. It is commonly served with tomato sauce and yoghurt, often alongside grilled peppers and tomatoes.
The bread is lightly browned while the meat stays tender and savoury; the cool yoghurt balances the rich, warmly spiced filling. In Turkey it is a restaurant-style main course, served hot with its sauces, and it also works well as a substantial shared meal. The combination of meat and flatbread makes it filling, with 13 g of protein per 100 g. For a lighter plate, pair it with a fresh salad and take the sauce on the side.

Beyti kebab is a Turkish dish made from seasoned minced meat, wrapped in thin flatbread and cut into slices. It is commonly served with tomato sauce and yogurt, often with grilled peppers and tomatoes on the plate.
Beyti kebab is associated with Istanbul restaurateur Beyti Güler and the restaurant bearing his name. The dish became known for its distinctive presentation of grilled minced meat wrapped in flatbread and served with sauce and yogurt.
Beyti kebab is usually made with ground beef, lamb, or a mixture of the two. The meat is seasoned and shaped around skewers before grilling; recipes vary, so the richness and flavor can differ from one restaurant to another.
Beyti kebab is wrapped in flatbread after grilling, then sliced and served with tomato sauce and yogurt. Adana kebab is typically a spicier minced-meat kebab cooked on a skewer and served without the same wrap-and-sauce presentation.
Shape seasoned ground meat into long kebabs and grill or bake them until cooked through. Wrap them in thin flatbread, slice into portions, and serve with tomato sauce and yogurt. A hot grill gives the meat a more charred flavor.
Beyti kebab is commonly served with a warm tomato-based sauce, often made by cooking tomato or tomato paste with butter and a little water. The sauce is spooned over the sliced kebab, while yogurt is served alongside.
Beyti kebab can be mild or spicy; its heat depends on the seasoning in the minced meat and the sauce. Unlike Adana kebab, it is not necessarily defined by a strong chili heat, so restaurant versions can vary.
The flatbread wraps the grilled minced-meat kebab so it can be sliced into neat, easy-to-serve pieces. It also catches some of the tomato sauce and meat juices, while the bread should remain intact rather than turn soggy.
Serve Beyti kebab with yogurt and grilled tomatoes or peppers for a traditional-style plate. Rice, bulgur, or a fresh salad can round out the meal, although the kebab is already served with flatbread.
Yes, leftover Beyti kebab can be frozen, preferably without the yogurt and with the sauce stored separately. Wrap the kebab portions airtight, thaw them in the refrigerator, and reheat gently; the flatbread may be softer after thawing.
