Make Pepper with milk, flour and cheese by cooking chopped peppers, stirring in a smooth milk-and-flour sauce, and adding grated cheese until it melts. Whisk the milk into the flour gradually to help prevent lumps.
Bell peppers work well in Pepper with milk, flour and cheese. Green peppers give it a sharper taste, while red bell peppers make it sweeter; cut them evenly so they cook at about the same rate.
Yes, Pepper with milk, flour and cheese can be baked. Cook the peppers and sauce first, transfer them to an oven-safe dish, then top with cheese and bake until it melts and turns lightly golden.
The sauce in Pepper with milk, flour and cheese usually turns lumpy when milk is added too quickly to the flour. Pour it in gradually while whisking; if lumps remain, whisk the sauce thoroughly or strain it before adding the peppers.
A good melting cheese works best in Pepper with milk, flour and cheese. Add grated cheese near the end of stovetop cooking, or scatter it over the dish before baking, so it melts without becoming rubbery.
Serve Pepper with milk, flour and cheese with rice, pasta, or crusty bread to make it a more substantial meal. A crisp green salad is a good contrast to the creamy sauce.

Pepper with milk, flour and cheese is a home-style dish of peppers cooked with a milk-and-flour mixture and finished with melted kaşar, Turkey’s mild, semi-hard cheese. The peppers soften and bring a gentle sweetness, while the sauce turns creamy and the cheese adds a savoury note.
In Turkey, it may be served hot as a vegetable side or with bread for a simple meal; elsewhere, it works well as a warm brunch dish or an easy supper alongside salad. It offers some protein and calcium, though the flour and cheese make it more substantial than plain cooked peppers. For a lighter plate, use a little less cheese and serve it with fresh vegetables.
