Toast the noodles in butter for 3 minutes, until they take on a little color.
Add the hot water and close the lid.
Cook the noodles for 10 minutes, until they absorb most of the water.
Add the kavurma and turn everything together for 4 minutes.
Let the pilaf steam for 8 minutes so the noodles settle without breaking.
Serve the buttered kavurma noodle pilaf hot.
💡 Tip: Adding the kavurma at the end keeps the meat from drying out.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve hot with ayran and pickles on the side.
