The ottomans can get enough manpower to field 2 armies of 7/2s (7 infantry battalions and 2 arty battalions) in 1939/1940.
So, why do you have manpower problems and in which year are you?
Did you go on total mobilization during the civil war and forgot about women in the workforce (this gives you -3 % recruitable population)?
Do you have to much garrison troops and to low compliance?
Anyway, to get manpower or at least the troops of puppets you can get iraq, iran and afghanistan as puppets. It is really important to take "expand the saadabad pact" before "reclaim the fallen empire". Otherwise, "the pan national association of ulemas" (the focus which gives you the puppets) cancels automatically.
After you completed "reclaim the fallen empire" you get decisions which give you cores and manpower on certain territories if you conquer them.

Its design so the player doesn't steamroll everything before 1941. Low manpower until after WWII starts. You should still be able to field 30-40 divisions. That's really all you need until you join WWII around 1941.

Of course, if you are a good player, you would just exploit the AI and world tension to steamroll everything before 1941.
