Instructions

YUFKA DOUGH PREPARATION:

  1. In a bowl, mix the flour, salt, olive oil, and around 300 ml of water. Use your hands to knead the mixture until you have a smooth, non-sticky dough, which should take about 10 minutes.

  2. Cover the dough and let it rest for at least 45 minutes.

FILLING PREPARATION

  1. While the dough is resting, let’s prepare the filling. Start by finely dicing the onion and frying it in a non-stick pan with a little oil.
  2. Add the spinach, cover it with a lid, and cook until the spinach wilts.
  3. Then, add the feta, garlic, chili, salt, and pepper. Mix everything together well and season to taste. Set the filling aside.

PREPARATION OF GÖZLEME

  1. Divide the dough into 12 pieces and shape each piece into a round shape. Cover the dough and let it stand for 15 minutes.
  2. Sprinkle some flour on the work surface and roll out one piece of dough very thinly. Aim for an even thinner consistency if possible.

  3. Spread the fillings on one half of the rolled-out dough, leaving some space around the edges.

  4. Brush the edge with a little water, then fold the other half over the fillings and press the edges down firmly.

  5. Heat a non-stick frying pan and bake the gözleme for about 5 minutes on each side without adding any fat.

  6. Once done, remove the gözleme from the pan and brush both sides with melted butter.

  7. Repeat the process with the remaining dough and fillings until all the gözlemes are prepared.
