Noodles with Yogurt is a Turkish home-style dish made by tossing cooked erişte—short, flat noodles, often cut from homemade dough—with thick yogurt. Some cooks season the yogurt with garlic, then finish the bowl with butter warmed with red pepper flakes, dried mint or other herbs.
The noodles are tender and filling, while the cool, tangy yogurt makes each bite creamy and refreshing. In Turkey, it is commonly served warm as a simple lunch or supper, either on its own or alongside salad, pickles or a vegetable dish. It brings together carbohydrate from the noodles and protein from the yogurt, making it a satisfying meat-free option. For a lighter version, use plain yogurt and go easy on the butter; fresh herbs add plenty of flavor.

Noodles with yogurt combine cooked noodles with plain yogurt, often seasoned with garlic. In the Turkish-style version, a topping of melted butter and red pepper flakes is also common.
Boil the noodles until tender, drain them, and let them cool briefly. Stir smooth yogurt through the noodles, then add garlic or a butter-and-pepper topping if you like.
Yes, Greek yogurt works in noodles with yogurt, but its thicker texture can make the dish feel dense. Stir in a little water until the yogurt is smooth and easy to coat the noodles.
Yogurt can split in noodles with yogurt when it meets very hot noodles or is heated too quickly. Let the noodles cool briefly, and stir the yogurt in off the heat rather than boiling the finished dish.
Noodles with yogurt are usually served warm or at room temperature, especially when topped with melted butter and pepper. They can also be eaten chilled, though the butter topping may firm up.
Noodles with yogurt are associated with Turkish home cooking, where erişte—short, flat noodles—are commonly served with yogurt. There is no single widely established origin for the dish.
Melted butter with red pepper flakes is a classic topping for noodles with yogurt. Dried mint or garlic in the yogurt adds another familiar flavor; add toppings just before serving.
A crisp salad, pickles, or a vegetable dish pairs well with noodles with yogurt. These add freshness alongside the soft noodles and creamy yogurt, making the meal feel more balanced.
Yes, you can reheat noodles with yogurt, but warm them gently over low heat and stir often. High heat can cause the yogurt to separate; adding a small splash of water can loosen the dish.
You can cook the noodles ahead, but noodles with yogurt are best assembled shortly before serving. Keeping the noodles and yogurt separate helps prevent the noodles from soaking up the yogurt and turning soft.
