Kebab with Cheese is a kebab associated with Yozgat, Turkey, made by cooking kebab meat together with cheese. Recipes vary in whether the cheese is placed inside the meat preparation or melted over the kebab.
To make Kebab with Cheese, prepare the kebab meat, cook it, and add cheese so it melts with the dish. Home recipes may use an oven or grill; adding the cheese near the end helps prevent it from overcooking.
A cheese that melts well is used in Kebab with Cheese; Turkish kaşar is one suitable option. The exact cheese varies by recipe, and its saltiness and melting texture influence the finished dish.
The cheese in Kebab with Cheese can be incorporated into the meat or melted on top. There is no single placement used in every version, so check the recipe or ask the restaurant if you have a preference.
Kebab with Cheese is associated with Yozgat, a province in central Turkey. As with many regional dishes, its preparation can vary among households and restaurants, so the name does not guarantee one identical recipe.
Kebab with Cheese is made with kebab meat, and recipes may use different meats or meat preparations. Ask the cook or restaurant which meat they use, especially if you are avoiding a particular type.
Kebab with Cheese includes melted cheese alongside the kebab meat, while a plain kebab does not. The cheese gives the dish a richer, creamier taste and changes the texture of the meat.
Kebab with Cheese can be cooked on a grill or in an oven; neither method is essential to the name. A grill adds a smoky, charred flavor, while an oven makes it easier to control the melting cheese.
Serve Kebab with Cheese with grilled vegetables, salad, or flatbread. A fresh salad or tangy onion accompaniment balances the rich cheese, while bread makes the meal more filling.
Refrigerate leftover Kebab with Cheese in a covered container once it has cooled. Reheat it in an oven or covered pan until hot; gentle reheating helps keep the meat from drying out.

Yozgat-style Kebab with Cheese is a hearty kebab dish associated with Yozgat, in central Turkey. Kebab-style cooked meat is served with cheese melted over it, adding a rich, savoury finish and a soft contrast to the meat.
It is best served hot as a main course, often alongside bread or pide and a fresh salad; roasted vegetables make a good accompaniment too. The meat and cheese make it a filling source of protein, while also giving the dish a substantial, rich character. For a lighter plate, pair it with plenty of salad and keep the bread portion modest.
