Kamp ocağı suyu ısıtmakla kalmayıp yemeği de pişirdi.

This is a very common Turkish pattern:

-makla kalmayıp ... = not only doing X, but also ...

So here:

• suyu ısıtmakla kalmayıp = not only heating the water
• followed by yemeği de pişirdi = it also cooked the food

Literally, kalmak means to stay/remain, but in this structure it gives the idea of not stopping at just one action.

Because ısıtmakla kalmamak is a fixed grammatical pattern.

Here:

• ısıtmak = to heat
• ısıtmakla kalmamak = to not be limited to heating / to not only heat

So -makla here is not simply a random ending. It is part of the expression -makla kalmamak.

In other words, Turkish is not saying:

• it heated the water and...

It is saying:

• it did not just heat the water; it also...

kalmayıp breaks down like this:

• kal- = verb stem, stay/remain
• -ma- = negative
• -yıp = a form of -(y)ıp / -(y)ip / -(y)up / -(y)üp, which links verbs and means something like and / by ...-ing / without just...

So:

• kalmayıp = not remaining / not stopping at that

The y is a buffer consonant. It appears because the negative form kalma- ends in a vowel, and Turkish often inserts y before another vowel-initial suffix.

Because they are definite direct objects, so they take the accusative ending.

• su → suyu
• yemek → yemeği

This is very common in Turkish. When the object is specific or definite, you usually use the accusative.

A few details:

• su takes a buffer y before the vowel suffix: su + -yu = suyu
• yemek changes to yemeği because final k often softens to ğ before a vowel suffix

So these forms mean roughly:

• the water
• the food / the meal

even if English may not always explicitly say the.

de here means also / too.

So:

• yemeği de pişirdi = it also cooked the food

In this sentence, de works together with -makla kalmayıp to create the idea:

• not only X, but also Y

Important note: this de is written separately from the word before it.

kamp ocağı is a noun compound meaning camp stove.

In Turkish, compounds like this are very common:

• kamp = camp
• ocak = stove
• kamp ocağı = camp stove

The second noun usually takes a compound ending, often -(s)I. So:

• ocak → ocağı

This is why it is not simply kamp ocak.

A similar pattern appears in many Turkish compounds.

This is because of consonant softening.

In Turkish, final k often changes when a vowel-initial suffix is added:

• ocak → ocağı
• yemek → yemeği

So:

• ocak + ı-type ending gives ocağı
• yemek + i-type ending gives yemeği

Also, the letter ğ in modern Turkish usually is not pronounced like a strong English g. It often lengthens the preceding vowel or creates a smooth transition.

pişirdi is in the simple past (also called the definite past).

Breakdown:

• pişir- = cook
• -di = past tense
• third person singular has no extra ending here

So:

• pişirdi = cooked

In this sentence, the main tense is carried by the final verb pişirdi. The earlier part ısıtmakla kalmayıp is subordinate and depends on the main verb.

Because Turkish often uses a non-finite verb form first, and then puts the full tense/person marking on the final main verb.

Here:

• ısıtmakla kalmayıp = subordinate part
• pişirdi = main finite verb

This is very natural in Turkish. English often uses separate finite verbs, but Turkish frequently links actions together and saves the full tense marking for the final verb.

No, Turkish word order is fairly flexible, but this sentence has a very natural, neutral order.

The basic flow is:

• subject: Kamp ocağı
• object + subordinate expression: suyu ısıtmakla kalmayıp
• second object + de: yemeği de
• main verb: pişirdi

Putting the main verb at the end is especially typical in Turkish.

You can move parts around for emphasis, but the original sentence sounds normal and clear.

It can mean either, depending on context.

In this sentence, yemeği could naturally be understood as:

• the food
• the meal

Both are possible translations in English. Turkish yemek is a very common word with a somewhat broader range than a single English equivalent.
