Kumpir - Turkish loaded baked potato

Kumpir is a Turkish street food made from a large baked potato split down the middle. The flesh is mashed with butter and kaşar cheese directly in the potato, creating a creamy base.

Customers choose from a wide selection of toppings: olives, sweetcorn, Russian salad, sausage, mushrooms, pickled vegetables, and more. Kumpir is most popular in the Istanbul neighbourhood of Ortaköy on the Bosphorus waterfront.
