Traditional Bafra Pide, Crispy Flatbread with Butter Shine

In this video, we visit Pideli Maslak, a restaurant that specializes in Bafra-style pide, a traditional delicacy from Turkey’s Black Sea region. Hidden inside Atatürk Oto Sanayi, a massive car repair and parts hub, this place is a true hidden gem for pide lovers!

Usta (The chef) skillfully stretches the dough using the authentic Bafra technique, stitching it by hand before baking it in a traditional stone oven. The result? Crispy, buttery, and absolutely mouthwatering pide!

Here are the 4 types of pide we see in this video:

🥩 Özel Kıymalı Bafra Pidesi – The classic Bafra-style pide, filled with minced meat flavored with parsley, onions, and black pepper. The crust is crispy, golden, and brushed with butter for that extra shine.

🌿 Ispanaklı Lorlu Pide – A vegetarian delight! This one’s stuffed with spinach, local Lor cheese, and red onions, creating a fresh and tangy taste.

🥔 Patatesli Pide – A soft and creamy version, packed with mashed potatoes and Turkish spices for a unique, comforting flavor.

🍳 Pastırmalı Kaşarlı Pide – A true masterpiece! The boat-shaped dough is first filled with melted Kaşar cheese, then baked. Next, a runny egg is cracked on top and baked again. Finally, thin slices of pastırma (Turkish cured beef) are added for a rich, smoky finish.

If you’re in Istanbul, this is a must-try experience! Watch the full video to see how these incredible pides are made from scratch!
