Description

A straightforward recipe for Turkish-style pasta, similar to Manti, served with a simple yogurt and spiced butter sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt
  • 1 clove garlic, minced

Instructions

  1. Mix flour, egg, water, and salt to form a stiff dough. Knead for 5 minutes.
  2. Cover the dough and let it rest for 30 minutes.
  3. Roll the dough very thin, about 1/16 inch thick.
  4. Cut the dough into small squares, about 1 inch by 1 inch.
  5. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta squares and cook until they float and are tender, about 5 to 7 minutes.
  6. While pasta cooks, melt the butter in a small pan over medium heat. Stir in the paprika and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant. Remove from heat.
  7. In a small bowl, mix the yogurt and minced garlic.
  8. Drain the cooked pasta. Place the pasta in a serving bowl.
  9. Spoon the garlic yogurt over the pasta.
  10. Drizzle the spiced butter evenly over the yogurt. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • You can use store-bought wonton wrappers if you prefer not to make the dough from scratch.
  • For extra flavor, add a pinch of dried mint to the butter sauce.
