What is Yogurt with Chili Flakes?

Yogurt with Chili Flakes is a simple Turkish-style dish of plain, thick yogurt topped with red pepper flakes, often briefly warmed in oil. Its cool, gently tangy base contrasts with the pepper’s warmth, while the oil adds aroma; the texture is creamy and good for scooping with bread or vegetables.

In Turkey, it is commonly served as a meze or alongside home-cooked dishes, grilled meats and kebabs. Elsewhere, it works just as well as a savoury dip or a cooling side for spicy food. It contributes protein as well as some carbohydrate and fat, mainly from the yogurt. For a lighter version, use only a small drizzle of oil and adjust the flakes to your preferred heat.
