Discover the Art of Turkish Dumplings: Mantı Cooking Class
Only on Mondays
Across cultures, dumplings bring people together — small parcels of dough filled with big flavors. In Turkey, that special version is called mantı, and it’s more than just a dish — it’s a symbol of love, patience, and family tradition.
In this hands-on cooking class, you’ll learn to make mantı from scratch — starting with the dough, rolling it thin, and carefully folding each little piece around a flavorful filling. Traditionally made with ground beef, mantı can easily be adapted for vegetarians with a delicious filling of cheese and spinach.
Once assembled, your dumplings are gently boiled and served with a rich tomato sauce and a garlic-yogurt splash — a classic and irresistible combination that defines Turkish comfort food.
Whether you’re a seasoned cook or just starting out, this class offers more than a recipe. It offers a warm, cultural journey into one of Turkey’s most cherished dishes
