Editorial principles

Recipes

Recipes are based on common Turkish cooking methods and written for home kitchens. Results can vary with your ingredients and your oven, so judge the times by how the dish looks.

Measures

A cup is 200 ml, a small glass is 100 ml, a tablespoon is 15 ml, a dessertspoon is 10 ml and a teaspoon is 5 ml. Gram amounts are worked out from approximate densities. See the measure converter.

Nutrition

Values per serving are rough estimates, not laboratory measurements. They are not medical advice for anyone following a therapeutic diet.

Diet labels

Vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free labels are based on the ingredients listed in the recipe. If you have an allergy or coeliac disease, check the labels of the products you use.

Community recipes

Recipes shared by members are reviewed for content before publication, but our editors do not test them. They appear in a separate section under the member's name.

Photos

Photos come from freely licensed sources and may not match the serving in the recipe exactly. The owner and licence of each photo are listed on the photo credits page.

Ratings and comments
