gozleme


Here is the gozleme which I learned from my mother. Gozleme is a part of our culture and Turkish Cuisine. I’d love mom due to her making gozleme when I was a child. And on the day when she said she would make gozleme, I’d wait for it without eating anything all day. At present I can make gozleme without my mom :)
Thanks to my mom here is the gozleme recipe:

 Ingredients :
  • 1 kg all purpose flour
  • 1/2 tbsp salt
  • warm water

for filling:
  • 100 gr poppy seeds
  • A cup of oil
  • 1/2 tbsp salt 
Recipe:
Sift the  all purpose flour with the help of sieve and open a place in the middle of the flour. Add a pinch of salt in it. Knead the dough by adding warm water little by little. It should be as thick as a bread dough. Take a piece from the dough as big as an orange then roll it in your palm.  Roll out the piece of dough with a rolling pin until it is pretty thin. 
Prepare the filling by mashing poppy seeds, oil and a pinch of salt. Spread the mixture with poppy seeds perfectlyon the thin dough (phyllo) . After spreading it perfectly crumple the dough and then crumple it again until it gets like a stick. Cut the dough in the middle then  roll out the cut piece until it gets thick of almost 1 cm. Put a pan on fire. After that cook it in a pan. Go on making the same thing until the dough finishes.

Having this gozleme with tea ;nothing explains this enjoyment.

Poppy is grown in Agean Region.The fluid of poppy seed is taken when it’s under cultivation to use in industry.The seed of poppy is used for making pastries. It gives yummy flavor to pastries…
