Turkish beef mantı with yogurt and tomato sauce is a Turkish take on small, filled dumplings: thin dough parcels hold seasoned minced beef, and are cooked before being topped with yogurt and a tomato-paste sauce. Mantı is particularly associated with Kayseri, though versions are made across Turkey; garlic and a little butter or pepper are common additions to the topping.
The dumplings are soft and hearty, balanced by cool, tangy yogurt and the savoury sauce. In Turkey they are usually served as a main dish, sometimes alongside salad or pickles. The dough provides most of the carbohydrates, while the beef and yogurt contribute protein; yogurt also makes the dish a source of calcium. For a lighter serving, keep the sauce modest and add extra plain yogurt.
