saviydin

Saviydin is a traditional Turkish dish that is particularly popular in the Eastern Black Sea region, including cities like Trabzon and Rize. The name "saviydin" is derived from the Turkish word "savurmak," which means to spread or rub, reflecting the method of preparation. The dish is typically made with a base of finely chopped or ground meat, usually beef or lamb, which is mixed with various spices and herbs. Common ingredients include onions, garlic, red pepper flakes, and cumin. The meat mixture is then spread onto a flat surface, such as a wooden board or a large plate, and is cooked over an open flame or on a grill. The cooking process involves flipping the meat mixture frequently to ensure even cooking and to develop a crispy exterior. Saviydin is often served with flatbread or pita, and it is commonly enjoyed as a street food or a casual meal. The dish is known for its rich flavor and texture, making it a favorite among locals and visitors alike.
