Hingel(Hıngel)
regionalOther names: Hengel
The large manti of Eastern Anatolia: dough parcels filled with minced meat are boiled and served under garlic yoghurt and browned butter. Smallness is not the measure here; the parcel is large and the dough left thick.
The dough is cut into squares, filled with minced meat and closed into parcels; they are boiled in salted water and met with yoghurt while still hot.

Table balance
- Alongside
- Pickles or an onion-and-lemon salad: acidity cuts the fat and lightens the plate.
- To drink
- Ayran (salted yogurt drink) or turnip juice — the classic partner to a rich meat plate. Ayran or plain tea; a sweet drink beside pastry brings on fullness sooner.
- Afterwards
- Plain brewed tea; if you still want dessert, keep the portion small and wait a little.

Shortcuts worth knowing
How to order
The same dish changes name from city to city. Asking about an unfamiliar name is the shortest route.
Pick the good one
In su böreği the measure is hand-rolled dough, not the number of layers; machine sheets turn rubbery.
Right time
Pide and lahmacun are eaten the minute they leave the oven. Wrapped in paper, steam softens the dough.
