What is Fried Potato Oturtma?
Fried Potato Oturtma is a Turkish home-style baked dish made with fried potato slices, minced meat, tomato sauce and spices. Oturtma refers to a family of layered or topped dishes; recipes vary, but the potato version is often served as a hearty main course rather than a side.
The potatoes turn tender beneath the savoury, gently spiced meat and tomato topping. In Turkey, it fits naturally into a family dinner, often served with yoghurt, cacık or a crisp salad; those sides also work well for cooks elsewhere. It brings together carbohydrates and protein, with some fat from frying. For a lighter plate, use less oil when frying the potatoes and add extra salad or vegetables.
