Yogurt Noodle Meze is a Turkish-style side dish or appetizer made by combining cooked noodles with yogurt. It is commonly served cool or at room temperature, and recipes may add garlic, herbs, or a seasoned oil topping.
To make Yogurt Noodle Meze, cook the noodles, drain them, and let them cool before folding them into seasoned yogurt. Cooling the noodles first helps keep the yogurt thick. Garlic, dried mint, and a little pepper oil are common additions.
Yogurt Noodle Meze is usually served cold or at room temperature. Let the noodles cool before mixing them with yogurt, since hot noodles can make the yogurt runny or cause it to separate. Chill the finished dish until serving.
Yogurt Noodle Meze can be made with Turkish erişte, a short noodle often prepared with wheat flour and egg, or with another small pasta shape. Cook the noodles until tender but not mushy so they hold their texture in the yogurt.
Yes, Greek yogurt works well in Yogurt Noodle Meze and makes the mixture especially thick and creamy. If it is too dense to coat the noodles, stir in a little water until it reaches a spoonable consistency. Plain, unsweetened yogurt is best.
Yogurt Noodle Meze is coated mainly in yogurt, while many pasta salads use an oil- or mayonnaise-based dressing. It is served as a meze or side dish and often gets its flavor from garlic, mint, or a spiced oil topping.
Yes, Yogurt Noodle Meze can be made ahead and kept covered in the refrigerator until serving. The noodles may absorb some yogurt as they sit, so stir the dish before serving and add a little more yogurt if its texture has become too thick.
Yogurt Noodle Meze pairs well with grilled vegetables, salads, and other small plates. It can also be served alongside grilled meat as a cool, creamy side. Since the dish already contains yogurt, choose a different style of meze for variety.
Yes, Yogurt Noodle Meze can be made without garlic. Use chopped dill, mint, or spring onion to add flavor instead, or keep the yogurt plain for a milder result. Add any herbs shortly before serving to keep their flavor fresh.
To keep Yogurt Noodle Meze from getting watery, drain the noodles thoroughly and let them cool before mixing. Use thick plain yogurt, and avoid leaving the finished dish at room temperature for a long time. Stir it before serving if liquid separates.

Yogurt Noodle Meze is a Turkish-style side dish that combines erişte—short, often homemade noodles—with a creamy yogurt dressing. Garlic is a common addition, and some versions are finished with spiced oil or herbs, though recipes vary from kitchen to kitchen.
Served cool or at room temperature, it brings together the soft, substantial bite of noodles and the fresh tang of yogurt. In Turkey it fits naturally on a meze spread beside other small dishes, or as a side for a simple home-cooked meal; elsewhere, it works well as a make-ahead lunch or potluck dish. It is mainly a carbohydrate-containing noodle dish, with some protein from the yogurt. For a lighter bowl, use plain yogurt and go easy on added oil.
