Ilenmeye

Ilenmeye is a traditional Turkish dish that is often served as a side dish or a main course. It is a type of stuffed pasta, typically made with a filling of ground meat, such as lamb or beef, mixed with onions, garlic, and spices. The filling is then wrapped around a thin, flat dough called yufka, which is similar to filo dough but thinner. The stuffed pasta is then baked until the dough is golden brown and crispy.

Ilenmeye is a popular dish in Turkey and is often served with a variety of accompaniments, such as yogurt, tomato sauce, or a spicy red pepper sauce. It can be served hot or cold, and is often enjoyed as a snack or a light meal. The dish is also popular in other countries where Turkish cuisine is enjoyed, such as Greece, Cyprus, and the Balkans.

The origins of ilenmeye are not well-documented, but it is believed to have been influenced by both Turkish and Middle Eastern cuisines. The dish is often compared to other stuffed pasta dishes, such as ravioli and moussaka, and is known for its rich, flavorful filling and crispy, golden-brown crust.
