Homemade gozleme


Last night's dinner snapped moments before it was devoured.

Homemade gozleme is so easy to make. All ingredients are in bold.

  • Put 200g full-fat plain yoghurt in a bowl and sift 250g plain flour, 3 tsps baking powder and a pinch of salt on top.
  • Mix with a wooden spoon and then finish off with your hand.
  • Knead dough for a couple of minutes (I don't even bother taking the ingredients out of the big bowl I use) until dough is no longer sticky.
  • Put dough in a clean bowl lightly oiled with olive oil and cover with cling film. Leave for about an hour.
  • Divide dough into four balls.
  • Roll each ball into a dinner-plate-sized circle.
  • Place washed-and-dried spinach leaves on one half of each circle.
  • Crumble feta over spinach.
  • Fold the other side of dough over mixture and pinch edges together before sealing with a fork.
  • Fry each one in a pan with olive oil for a few minutes each side until golden brown.
  • Remove from pan, cut and serve with lemon, salt and pepper.

I cook two at a time in a large frying pan. As the base becomes firm when it's cooked, these are super-easy to turn.

  1. Open my reading list and find exactly what I'm looking for! How's that!

    Ate these on the weekend, yum! I'd forgotten how delicious they are and I planned to google a recipe, now I won't have to. Thanks Vera. I'll make them today and let you know how I go. That's dinner taken care of.

  4. That sounds way too easy. And oh so delicious! There is a Middle Eastern spinach fatayer that is similar but definitely not so easy to make. I am definitely bookmarking this to try over the weekend. Yum! Best wishes, Tammy
