What is Cantik with Kavurma?

Cantik with Kavurma is a Bursa-style baked pastry: a small, pide-like piece of dough topped or filled with kavurma, beef cooked until tender. It is baked until the edges are lightly browned, with soft bread around a rich, savoury meat filling. The name cantik is closely associated with Bursa in north-western Turkey, where it is commonly found at bakeries and pide shops.

It is usually eaten warm as a filling lunch or casual meal, often with ayran or a fresh salad. With 11 g of protein per 100 g, it offers a substantial contribution from the beef, while the pastry makes it a hearty choice. For a lighter meal, share a piece or pair it with salad rather than another dough-based side.
