Flavors, dishes and restaurants
Cuisine
The tradition of home cooking, which occupies an important place in the cultural structure of the district, comes to life in manti producers throughout Sultanbeyli. The biggest difference of this manti is that it is completely rolled by hand and folded small in a bundle shape, away from the fabricated productions of Istanbul. It is served hot with garlic yogurt and hot butter sauce in social facilities supported by the district municipality and in shops around the local market seen on the Map.
Fresh eggs added to the dough of the manti ensure that the consistency remains firm. Manti, which is one of the most popular examples of Anatolian cuisine across Turkey, is preserved in the district with its unique craftsmanship standard.
