The Viral Turkish Pasta Recipe aka Yalancı Mantı

What if you could enjoy all the flavors of The Viral Turkish Pasta Recipe aka Yalancı Mantı, without spending hours folding tiny dumplings? This viral Turkish pasta with ground beef, garlic yogurt, and paprika butter delivers exactly that. It’s rich, creamy, comforting, and surprisingly easy to make. No complicated techniques. No special skills. Just bold, authentic flavor in under 30 minutes. It’s easy to see why Lazy Manti (Yalancı Mantı), also known as Turkish pasta with yogurt and paprika butter, has taken social media by storm. This shortcut version keeps everything we love about classic manti — the savory meat, the creamy yogurt, and the aromatic butter — but swaps handmade dumplings for pasta. The result? Pure comfort food made for real life. Watch my prep video on Instagram

Baslogh Anar – Pomegranate & Pistachio Jelly Confection

Cinnamon smells like Christmas. Rosewater carries you straight to the Middle East. And then there is pomegranate. Its deep ruby juice shines like liquid light. To me, it has always felt festive. Maybe because pomegranates symbolize luck and new beginnings in so many cultures. Or maybe because they always remind me of the longest night of the year: Shab-e Yalda. On Yalda Night, pomegranate takes center stage at our table. Fresh, juicy, symbolic – it’s everywhere and here I have a lot of Must-Eat recipes. And this year, my Baslogh Anar – Pomegranate & Pistachio Jelly Confection fits the occasion perfectly. Soft, jelly-like, gently sweet with a pleasant tang. Similar to Turkish Delight, but with a distinctly Persian soul and an extra touch of pomegranate magic. Here’s a little secret: With this recipe, I’m opening Door No. 15 of the Xmas Boom Advent Calendar. That’s where Christmas and Yalda meet. Candlelight, winter coziness, sweet treats – blended with oriental colors, stories, and traditions. Two festivals of light, warmth, and togetherness. Watch my prepvideo on Instagram

Today we’re celebrating a very special day: National Bundt Cake Day! I’m so excited to join Tina from Food & Co again this year.
