Peinirli

The peinirli (or penirli) is an elongated, open pie made in a boat shape. They contain a substantial amount of yellow cheese and, optionally, meats or vegetables.[1] Peinirli originated in Turkey, where it is known as peynirli.[2] There are two types of pide: peynirli pide, in which cheese entirely covers the surface of the filling, and karışık pide, which has cheese only as part of the filling (usually one third).
