Turkish manti with yogurt consists of small dumplings made from thin dough, usually filled with seasoned minced meat. They are boiled and served with garlicky yogurt; a warm butter sauce with chilli or dried mint is a familiar finishing touch, though recipes and shapes vary between households.
In Turkey, this is commonly served hot as a main meal, sometimes alongside salad or pickles. The combination of dough, meat and yogurt makes it a filling dish with some protein: a 100 g portion provides 8.1 g. For a lighter plate, use a modest amount of butter sauce and add a fresh salad; extra yogurt can be served on the side if you like.
