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. Peinirli originated in Turkey, where it is known as peynirli pide. 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).
