# manti
## English
### Etymology

The immediate source is Turkish mantı or Ottoman Turkish مانطی (mantı). Before that, the origin is obscure. The word was widespread in Central Asia by the 13th century. Possibly from Middle Chinese 饅頭 (muɑn dəu), which would make it a doublet of mandu, manju, and mantou.

### Noun

manti (plural manti or manties)
* A type of dumpling served in Turkish, Armenian and Central Asian cuisine
** 1998 November 13, Ted Shen, “Restaurant Tours: Metin Kurtulus serves Turkey”, in Chicago Reader‎:And they kept one of the national dishes, manti (pasta stuffed with ground beef served in garlic-yogurt sauce, $11.50), as well as lahmacun, sort of a Turkish pizza ($3), and arnavut cigeri (fried calf's liver and potatoes, $5.75), a hot appetizer.
** 2007 December 5, Melissa Clark, “When It Looks at You, It’s Done”, in New York Times‎:Crowding the table were miniature, hand-formed lamb dumplings called manti; flaky pastries, called boreks, filled with wild greens; and an elaborate paste of chicken, wheat and pistachios called keskek.
