Stuffed intestine with meat is a traditional dish made by filling cleaned sheep or goat intestine with a seasoned mixture, commonly including minced meat and rice, then cooking it. In Turkish it is called etli mumbar dolması and is associated with southeastern regional cooking.
Stuffed intestine with meat is usually made with the large intestine of a sheep or goat. It is not made with the stomach lining used for Turkish şırdan dolması, though both dishes are stuffed offal and their names are sometimes confused.
For stuffed intestine with meat, turn the intestine inside out and rinse it thoroughly under running water, removing residue and excess fat carefully. Some cooks rub it with salt, lemon, or vinegar to reduce odor, then rinse it again before filling.
The filling for stuffed intestine with meat commonly includes minced meat, rice, onion, and spices. Some regional or family recipes use bulgur instead of rice, or combine the two; the seasoning and proportions are not identical everywhere.
Stuffed intestine with meat can burst if it is packed too tightly, since the rice and meat filling expands as it cooks. Leave room inside, secure the ends, and simmer gently rather than boiling it rapidly to help keep the casing intact.
Stuffed intestine with meat is typically simmered in water until the casing and filling are thoroughly cooked. Some cooks brown the boiled pieces in a pan afterward. Cooking time varies with the size of the pieces, so check that the filling is fully done.
Stuffed intestine with meat is associated with southeastern Turkish cuisine, where offal dishes are part of regional food traditions. It is particularly familiar in areas such as Diyarbakır, although recipes and serving customs vary between towns and households.
Stuffed intestine with meat uses intestine, while şırdan is made from a section of a sheep’s stomach. Both are stuffed with seasoned filling, but they differ in the organ used, shape, and texture.
Stuffed intestine with meat is often served with lemon, fresh greens, or pickles. The bright, sour accompaniments balance its rich flavor. It can be served as the main dish, sometimes with a simple salad or yogurt on the side.
Yes, you can freeze cooked stuffed intestine with meat once it has cooled. Pack it in an airtight container, thaw it in the refrigerator, and reheat it until piping hot throughout. Freezing may slightly change the texture of the casing.

Stuffed intestine with meat, known in Turkey as etli mumbar dolması, is a traditional dish made by filling carefully cleaned sheep or lamb intestine with a mixture of minced meat, rice and spices. It is particularly associated with southeastern Turkey, where the stuffed casing is simmered until tender and the filling takes on the savoury cooking juices.
The casing stays pleasantly chewy, while the inside is soft, warmly spiced and filling. In Turkey it is usually served hot as a main dish, often with lemon, salad or yoghurt; home recipes vary in their seasoning and meat-to-rice balance. The meat provides protein, while rice and fat make the dish substantial; it has 12.8 g of protein per 100 g and little fibre. For a lighter meal, serve a modest portion with plenty of fresh salad.
