  • 50 grams baby spinach leaves Approximately 2 cups
  • 200 grams feta

Instructions

  • Combine the warm water, yeast, salt and sugar in a jug and gently stir with a fork.
  • Place a tea towel over the top and sit in a warm and sunny place for 5 minutes or until bubbles start to form on the surface.
  • Place the flour in a large bowl an add the yeast mixture. Use a butter knife to stir to combine before transferring to a lightly floured bench and knead for 5 - 6 minutes or until smooth and elastic.
  • Divide the dough into four portions and place onto an oven tray before covering with a tea towel. Sit in a warm spot for 20 - 30 minutes or until the dough has doubled in size.
  • Punch down the down and roll into a thin rectangle, add approximately ¼ of the baby spinach leaves and feta to half of the dough and cover. Pinch the edges of the dough together to seal.
  • Place 2 tablespoon of olive oil (or ghee) into a frying pan over a medium heat and cook for 2 - 3 minutes on each side.

Thermomix Instructions

  • Place the yeast, water and caster sugar into your Thermomix bowl and cook for 3 minutes, 37 degrees, speed 2.
  • Add the salt, plain flour and olive oil and mix for 10 seconds, speed 4.
  • Select the kneading function and knead for 4 minutes.
  • Tip the dough onto your bench and roll into a ball. Divide into 4 pieces and cover either with your Thermomat or place into an oiled bowl and cover with a clean tea towel. Sit in a warm spot for 30 minutes to allow the dough to double in size.
  • Punch down the down and roll into a thin rectangle, add approximately ¼ of the baby spinach leaves and feta to half of the dough and cover. Pinch the edges of the dough together to seal.
  • Place 2 tablespoon of olive oil (or ghee) into a frying pan over a medium heat and cook for 2 - 3 minutes on each side.
  • Repeat until all the dough and filling has been used.

Notes

  • You can double this recipe. Please ensure you do not exceed the 'maximum fill' line if making in a Thermomix.
  • If you find your dough is too sticky, add a little extra flour to it when dividing into four.
  • I like to cook my Gozleme in ghee (I use the recipe from Cookidoo to make mine) but you can also use extra virgin olive oil.
  • The cooked Gozleme can be frozen.
  • You can play with the quantities of of cheese if you wish. We also love these gozlemes with a sprinkle of parmesan cheese too.
