Govurdak

Since ancient times, Turkmen have relied on Govurdak as one of the most popular and fundamental beef meals. It's created by deep-frying beef pieces in their own fat. With a side of Turkmen çorek, this classic dish can be served hot or cold (bread).

Govurdak was made as a manner of preserving meat in the days before refrigeration. Govurdak keeps its culinary quality for a long time and can be stored in the refrigerator. It's used as a base for various Turkmen foods and to give them a rich, flavorful flavor.
