Green lentil manti is a Turkish-style dumpling filled with seasoned green lentils rather than the minced meat used in many manti recipes. It is commonly served with yogurt and a buttery or peppery sauce.
Green lentil manti has a lentil filling instead of the meat filling found in many familiar Turkish manti dishes. The dough and yogurt-based serving style can be similar, but the filling gives it a different texture and flavor.
To make green lentil manti, cook green lentils until tender, season them, and wrap small portions in rolled-out dough. Boil the dumplings until the dough is cooked through, then serve with yogurt and a sauce of your choice.
A buttery sauce with red pepper flakes or tomato paste is a common topping for green lentil manti. Many people spoon it over garlic yogurt just before serving, so the sauce stays warm and the dumplings do not sit in it for long.
Serve green lentil manti with a simple salad or a light soup if you want a fuller meal. Since yogurt and a rich topping are often served with the dumplings, a fresh, lightly dressed side works especially well.
Yes, you can use store-bought fresh pasta or dumpling dough for green lentil manti if it is pliable enough to seal around the filling. Cut it into small pieces, avoid overfilling, and follow the dough’s cooking instructions.
Seal the edges of green lentil manti firmly and keep the filling away from the seams. Drop the dumplings gently into boiling water and avoid vigorous stirring, which can loosen the seals before the dough sets.
Yes, green lentil manti can be baked, but the result will be firmer and less like the soft boiled version. Arrange the dumplings in a baking dish, add a little liquid to prevent drying, and bake until the dough is cooked through.
Yes, freeze green lentil manti uncooked by arranging the dumplings in a single layer until firm, then transferring them to a sealed freezer container. Cook them straight from frozen in boiling water rather than thawing them first.
Keep leftover green lentil manti in a covered container in the refrigerator and eat it within a few days. Reheat gently in a pan with a splash of water; store yogurt and sauce separately when possible, then add them after warming.

Green lentil manti are Turkish dumplings made from small pieces of dough wrapped around a seasoned green-lentil filling. They offer a meat-free take on manti, the dumpling family found across Turkey and neighbouring regions; home versions often flavour the lentils with onion and spices before folding and cooking the dough.
In Turkey, they’re commonly served as a main dish with garlicky yogurt and a drizzle of butter or pepper sauce. The lentils contribute plant protein and fibre, making the dumplings more filling than plain pasta. For a lighter serving, use a modest amount of rich sauce and add a crisp salad or vegetables alongside.
