This is a Turkish comfort food.

The kind of flour and the size of the eggs will affect how the dough comes together, so adjust the consistency with water a little at a time.
If you have any leftover meat, you make them into meatballs and serve them together with this dish. Recipe by hisosari

Steps

1

Knead the dough ingredients together while adjusting the consistency with water (until it reaches the firmness of your earlobes).
2

Once the dough comes together, wrap with plastic wrap and let rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
3

While the dough rests, mix the grated garlic into the yogurt to make the yogurt sauce.
4

Combine the filling ingredients and knead well.
5

Dust the dough with flour and roll it into a 1-2 mm thickness (this is easier if you divide the dough into 2-3 portions).
6

Cut the dough into 2.5 cm squares with a knife and top each square with a bit of the filling.
7

Seal up the squares. You will be topping it with the yogurt sauce at the end, so you don't have to worry about making the shapes perfect.
8

Bring a large amount of water to boil and add 1 tablespoon salt (water and salt amounts not listed). Put the manti dumplings into the hot water and continue boiling.
9

While the manti is boiling, melt the butter in a small frying pan. Once it begins to sizzle, add the red chili pepper flakes.
10

When the manti rises to the surface of the water, transfer to a plate.
11

Top with the yogurt sauce and butter sauce, then garnish with mint to taste.
