Tomato and Feta Stuffed Flatbread (Gözleme)

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Vegetarian & Vegan Dishes
Gözleme is a specialty of Turkish grandmothers, often seen being rolled fresh at markets. The name comes from 'göz' (eye), referring to the brown spots on the dough. This tomato-cheese version is like the love child of a quesadilla and a calzone: thin crispy dough with a molten savory center.

Instructions

1 ✓

Chop onion, garlic, and parsley. Dice the tomatoes. Crumble the feta.

2 ✓

Sauté onion in oil. Add tomatoes, garlic, salt, and pepper. Cook over high heat for 5-6 mins until juices evaporate and it becomes a thick paste. Let cool completely.

Tip: Hot filling will burn a hole in the dough.
3 ✓

Mix the cheese and parsley into the cooled tomato mixture.

4 ✓

Roll dough thin. Spread filling on half, fold over, and seal edges tightly.

Tip: Press out air pockets before sealing to prevent ballooning.
5 ✓

Cook in a hot dry pan for 3-4 mins per side. Brush with butter after cooking.

Tip: No oil needed in the pan! The dry heat creates the spots.

Recipe FAQ

Juice leaked out while cooking, help!
The tomato filling was too wet or the seal wasn't tight. Always cook the tomato mixture down until thick and cool it before filling!
