Welcome to The Turkish Dishes! If you are looking for the authentic, mouth-watering flavors of Turkish cuisine, you have come to the right place.

For me, cooking is not just about feeding the body; it is about feeding the soul. My passion for Turkish food began in my childhood, right in the heart of my grandmother’s kitchen. I grew up watching her turn simple, fresh ingredients into feasts that brought the whole family together.

I still remember the smell of fresh butter melting for a Tirit, the patience required to roll the perfect dough for Kete, and the joy of sharing a crowded table.

I created The Turkish Dishes to honor that legacy. Many people know Turkish cuisine only for Kebab or Baklava, but it is so much more. It is a vast culinary world filled with healthy olive oil dishes, rich soups, and amazing pastries.

Here, I am sharing my grandmother’s secret recipes—passed down through generations—along with the most beloved classics of Anatolian cuisine.

Whether you are a professional chef or a home cook looking to try something new, I hope these recipes bring the warmth of Turkish hospitality into your home.

Grab your apron, and let’s cook together!

Afiyet Olsun (Bon Appétit)!
