What the real thing tastes like
Etli ekmek (lit. 'Bread with meat') is a traditional Turkish dish that originated in Konya, Turkey. It is a type of flatbread topped with minced meat, usually lamb or beef, along with finely chopped vegetables such as onions, tomatoes, and peppers, then baked in a stone oven. Etli ekmek is very popular in the central regions of Turkey and can commonly be found in bakeries and specialized restaurants.

Etli ekmek arrives from Konya as flatbread transformed by fire—minced lamb or beef scattered across dough, then crowned with the sharp brightness of onions, tomatoes, and peppers. A stone oven does the essential work, turning vegetables soft and meat savory in one motion. It's the kind of dish you find casually in bakeries across central Turkey, which tells you everything about how thoroughly it belongs there.
