GOZLEME

Gozleme with Lamb – savoury homemade flatbreads from scratch filled with ground herbs and feta cheese.

The kitchens of the Ottomans at Topkapı Palace were a hotbed of competition and fierce rivalry as the palace chefs sought to create dishes that would impress the sultan of the time. These chefs were from countries that made up the Ottoman Empire so their spices and ways of cooking were imported into the palace.
it’s time to make some Turkish food. These Turkish gozleme are to die for and in case you’re wondering what they are, well I can help. Gozleme is a traditional savoury Turkish flatbread or pastry filled with meat, spinach, feta and lots of herbs. The possibilities are endless. There are many variations of gozleme but this is my version, and by no means am I saying this is authentic.images (1).jpg

GOZLEME The best part is that this recipe comes complete with an easy homemade pastry from scratch which only requires 3 ingredients. But of course the filling is the star of the show. We’ve got ground lamb that’s seasoned with lots of spices such as cumin, coriander and smoked paprika and cooked together with spinach making for an irresistible savoury filling.

I said it’s really easy to make, and you don’t need to let this dough rise or anything. I kneaded this by hand, but feel free to use your mixer and it’s going to be a lot easier. This dough will be enough to make 4 gozleme, but each one is quite big, and it makes for a very hearty lunch. If you wanted to make more, you could easily just double the recipe.
