Hingel

A hingel is a type of dumpling found in North Caucasus that is similar to manti. The meat version of the dish is often associated with Armenia but there is a stuffed potato variety said to hail from Erzurum in eastern Anatolia.^[1][2] The stuffed meat variety resembles a larger than average Armenian manti, but unlike manti, the filling includes onion, garlic and parsley as well as ground meat. It is served with a sauce of melted butter and yogurt.

Khinkal

The stuffed potato version is also sometimes called Sivas mantisi, named after the Sivas Province. In some versions from Sivas, the hingel dough may be shaped triangularly and boiled plain without any filling. Like other versions, this version is also served with a yogurt and butter sauce.^[3]
