| Gozleme - you have to try this! Posted: 12/24/2007 9:46:38 PM | This makes a brilliant flat bread, pizza base, or if you have a pie maker excellent pizza pockets... You can quadruple the gozleme basic dough, and freeze it in four batches... You can also fill with "any left over" I have filled mine with a spaghetti bolognaise sauce, and frozen in portions, and it only takes 2 minutes in the microwave to re-heat, fast and low fat..I have a yoghurt maker, so make the larger batch...
Gozleme [ means EYE in Turkish]
Ingredients
200g plain yoghurt pinch salt 250g SR flour
olive oil optional 100g baby spinach 200g fetta cheese, crumpled salt and pepper lemon wedges to serve
Method
1) Beat the yoghurt and salt in a large bowl until smooth. Gradually add the flour until you have a stiff dough.
2) Knead on a lightly floured surface, incorporating any remaining flour until the dough is soft and slightly sticky.
3) Put into a clean bowl, cover and stand for 30 mins [ it gets bigger!]
4) Divide dough into 4 round pieces. Roll each piece into a 20-25cm circle
Fill with any filling, can be ham cheese and pineapple, or roast and gravy optional Place spinach and fetta over half the circle and season. Fold dough over to form a half circle. Seal edges with a fork. Repeat with remaining dough and ingredients [Like a pasty]
5) Preheat BBQ plate or frying pan. Bush one side of each gozleme with olive oil and cook until the base is golden. Repeat for other side. [ they grow when cooking too]
Serve with lemon wedges and melted butter if desired.
ETA: Sour cream or soy yoghurt can both be used in place of yoghurt. White Wings Gluten Free SR Flour can also be used successfully in this recipe.
They can also be successfully reheated in the toaster!
Sweet filling suggestions: Banana, honey and chocolate topping.

How does it get bigger without any yeast added?
Did you use self rising flour?
Also if you use homemade yogurt do you strain off the water/whey juices when you make this recipe? | |

| Gozleme - you have to try this! Posted: 12/25/2007 12:05:17 AM | Oh, you did say SR flour. I must have been so stuffed from the Christmas meal all the blood is not around my brain right now. Yes, it'd be the baking powder/soda in the SR flour and the acid in the yogurt reacting.
So it's a quick bread. That'd be about 1 Cup with 1/4 tsp Baking Soda. Not sure how much 200g of yogurt is, though. 3/4ths a Cup, maybe?
Any bread you can make with 2 ingredients is nothing short of amazing! Thanks for sharing that, Museontheloose. Ever tried them with pizza like ingredients? It just sounds like it might lend itself well to making a quick homemade calzone.
I enjoyed seeing your recipe for Sweetened Condensed Milk in the cookie thread, too. On this side of the pond that stuff is so expensive these days that I don't keep it on hand anymore, not like I ever used it a lot to begin with, but having a way to make a fresh equivalent in a recipe is always invaluable! | |
