Acılı Dürüm is the spicy wrap: a *dürüm* built around chili paste or hot peppers rather than the milder default. The *dürüm* format is the rolled one, thin flatbread wrapped tightly around the filling into a dense cylinder you eat from one end, and *acılı* tells you the heat is part of the structure here, carried by chili paste or fresh and pickled peppers folded in with the rest. It is a wrap whose entire character turns on one decision, and the wrapping itself is what makes that decision either work or fall apart.

The build is sequential and the rolling is the critical move. A thin flatbread, typically *lavaş*, is laid flat and warmed briefly so it stays pliable instead of cracking. The filling is laid in a line down one side rather than heaped in the center, because the bread has to make a full turn around it without splitting. The heat goes in along that line: chili paste smeared onto the bread so it coats every bite, or sliced hot peppers distributed through the filling so the burn is intermittent and sharp. Then it is rolled tight, the seam set underneath, and often pressed briefly on a hot surface so the outside takes on a little color and the roll holds its shape. Good execution gives you a firm cylinder that does not unravel or leak, with the chili spread evenly down its length so the last bite is as seasoned as the first. Sloppy execution leaves a loose roll that falls open halfway through, paste pooled at one end, or a bread so cold it tore on the first turn and is now a wet wad.

The variations come down to how the heat is delivered and how tightly the bread is managed. A paste-based *acılı dürüm* runs deep and even; a pepper-based one is brighter and comes in spikes. The unspiced *dürüm*, with its own balance and its own reasons for existing, is a separate sandwich and deserves its own article rather than being crowded in here. What the *acılı* label reliably means is that the heat was built into the roll from the start, distributed along its length, not squirted on at the counter as an afterthought.
