About this dish
Qutab, or Gutab is a traditional dish in Azerbaijani, Turkmen and Turkish cuisine, made from thinly rolled dough that is filled with a variety of ingredients and cooked briefly on a convex griddle called a saj. This versatile and popular dish comes in many variations, with fillings ranging from savory meats, herbs, and pumpkin to more unconventional ingredients like minced sheep intestines. Usually served as an appetizer and comes in a small size. Some regions of Azerbaijan and Turkmenistan make larger versions where qutab then acts as a main course. Qutab is known for its light yet flavorful nature, often served as a snack, appetizer, or light meal, accompanied by yogurt, sumac, or a dipping sauce. Its preparation requires skill to roll the dough thinly and fold it into the signature half-moon shape.
