Potato hingel with yogurt is a regional dumpling dish made from dough parcels filled with potato, boiled, and served with yogurt. It is often finished with melted butter or a peppered butter sauce, and its shape can vary by cook and region.
To make potato hingel with yogurt, roll out a firm dough, add seasoned potato filling, seal the pieces, and boil them until cooked. Serve them hot with yogurt, often garlic yogurt, and add melted butter if desired.
Potato hingel with yogurt is associated with eastern Anatolian cooking, particularly the Kars region. Hingel has regional variations, including different shapes and fillings, so recipes and the name can differ across communities.
Potato hingel with yogurt is commonly made with potato filling and larger dough pieces, while Turkish manti is often smaller and filled with seasoned meat. Both may be boiled and served with yogurt, but their fillings and shapes set them apart.
The filling for potato hingel with yogurt is usually mashed cooked potato seasoned with salt, pepper, and often sautéed onion. Let the filling cool before shaping the dumplings; warm filling can soften the dough and make sealing harder.
The yogurt is usually spooned over potato hingel with yogurt after the dumplings are boiled and drained. Garlic is a common addition, and some versions also use melted butter on top; adding the yogurt at serving keeps the dish warm.
Potato hingel with yogurt dumplings can open if the edges are not sealed firmly, the dough is too thin, or too much filling is used. Press the seams closed, keep the filling away from the edges, and lower the dumplings gently into the water.
Yes, freeze potato hingel with yogurt dumplings before boiling them. Arrange the shaped pieces separately on a tray until firm, then transfer them to a sealed container; cook them from frozen and add the yogurt only when serving.
Potato hingel with yogurt is often served as a filling main dish with its yogurt and butter topping. A crisp salad or pickled vegetables make a refreshing contrast; the dumplings generally need little else alongside them.
Refrigerate leftover potato hingel with yogurt promptly in a covered container. If possible, store the dumplings separately from the yogurt topping; reheat them with a splash of water in a pan or microwave, then add the yogurt just before eating.

Potato hingel with yogurt is a regional dumpling associated with Kars and nearby parts of eastern Turkey. Pieces of dough are filled with potato, sealed and boiled, then served with yogurt; some versions are finished with garlic yogurt and butter warmed with chilli flakes.
The dumplings are soft and filling, with a mild potato centre balanced by cool, tangy yogurt. In Turkey they are usually served hot as a main dish, rather than as a snack. The dough and potato make carbohydrates the main nutritional feature, while the protein content is modest. For a lighter plate, keep the butter topping small and add a crisp salad alongside.
