Frequently Asked Questions About Etli Etmek
What is Etli Etmek?
Etli Etmek is a thin, elongated Turkish flatbread topped with minced meat and baked, traditionally associated with Konya. It is usually cut into strips or slices for serving and is sometimes called etli ekmek in Turkey.
What is the difference between Etli Etmek and lahmacun?
Etli Etmek is typically longer and broader, with its meat topping spread over an elongated piece of thin dough. Lahmacun is usually round and has many regional versions; the two are related meat-topped flatbreads, but they are not the same dish.
Where does Etli Etmek come from?
Etli Etmek is best known as a specialty of Konya, in central Türkiye. The city’s traditional version is made with thin dough and a minced-meat topping, then baked in a very hot oven, often a stone oven.
What is in Etli Etmek?
Etli Etmek is made with thin dough and a topping commonly combining finely minced meat, onion, tomato, green pepper, salt, and seasonings. Recipes differ by cook and bakery, but the topping is spread in a thin layer so it cooks with the dough.
How is Etli Etmek traditionally made?
Traditionally, the dough for Etli Etmek is rolled into a long, thin shape, covered with the meat mixture, and baked at high heat in a stone oven. The intense heat cooks the topping quickly while browning the base.
Is Etli Etmek the same as Turkish pide?
No. Etli Etmek is a particular Konya-style meat flatbread, usually long and very thin, while pide refers to a broader range of Turkish breads and baked dishes with varied shapes and toppings. Some restaurants may list Etli Etmek under pide.
How do you eat Etli Etmek?
Etli Etmek is usually served sliced into manageable strips and eaten by hand or with a fork. Lemon squeezed over the topping is a common accompaniment, and ayran or a fresh salad makes a classic pairing.
Can you make Etli Etmek at home?
Yes, you can make Etli Etmek at home with thin dough, a finely minced topping, and a thoroughly preheated oven. A stone oven gives the traditional result, but a hot home oven can still produce a crisp base and cooked topping.
How do you store and reheat leftover Etli Etmek?
Refrigerate leftover Etli Etmek in a covered container once it has cooled, and eat it within a few days. Reheat it briefly in an oven to bring back some crispness; a microwave is quicker but can soften the dough.
Can you freeze Etli Etmek?
Yes, Etli Etmek can be frozen after it has cooled. Wrap individual slices airtight, thaw them in the refrigerator, and warm them in the oven before serving. The dough may lose some crispness, so freshly baked Etli Etmek has the best texture.

What is Etli Etmek?
Etli Etmek is a thin, elongated flatbread associated especially with Konya in central Turkey. A finely minced meat topping, often mixed with tomato, pepper and onion, is spread over the dough before it is baked in a very hot oven. It arrives in slices, with a crisp-edged base and a savoury, juicy topping.
In Turkey it is commonly eaten as a main meal, often with ayran and a fresh salad; a squeeze of lemon is also welcome. The combination of meat and dough makes it a substantial source of both protein and carbohydrates, with 11 g of protein per 100 g. Pairing a portion with salad makes for a fresher, lighter meal.
