A plate of beyti kebab

Beyti kebab is a Turkish dish consisting of ground beef or lamb, grilled on a skewer and served wrapped in lavash and topped with tomato sauce and yogurt.

The dish is named after Beyti Güler, the owner of the popular restaurant Beyti in Istanbul, who was inspired to create it in 1961 after witnessing a butcher's method of preparing meat when he was visiting Switzerland.[1][2] Another common name for Beyti kebab is Lokma.
