Instructions
- 1
Knead the flour, egg, half the salt, and water into a firm dough.
- 2
Rest the dough for 25 minutes so it does not shrink back while rolling.
25 min25:00 - 3
Roll the dough thin, cut it into 2 cm squares, and pinch each square from two ends to form an ear shape.
- 4
Coarsely crush the walnut kernels.
- 5
Bring water to a boil in a large pot, then add the remaining salt and the vegetable oil.
- 6
Boil the ear-shaped dough pieces for 5 minutes and drain them.
5 min05:00 - 7
Fry the tomato paste in butter for 2 minutes and drizzle it over the dough.
2 min02:00 - 8
Scatter the walnuts over the top and serve the dumplings hot.
💡 Tip: Knead the dough firmer than earlobe-soft, with a dense feel; dough that is too soft opens during boiling and cannot carry the walnut sauce.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve cevizli kulak hot, with optional cacik or ayran to balance a Manisa home-style table.
