Gozleme flowers



Credit this recipe to my lovely friend, Rosalie :) Her original recipe use vegan feta cheese but I couldn't find it in my local supermarket today..so I use normal feta cheese.. and also I didn't roll the dough into larger thin circles and close them up, then fry them in the pan but made smaller circles, folded them into flowers and baked them in the oven instead.. It took longer in the oven tho.. My appetite was increasing by mins. 

Ingredients

1 1/2 cup plain flour
3 tsp baking power
2 tbs olive oil
A pinch of salt
150 ml water
100 g feta cheese, chopped 
50 g spinach, chopped

Methods

Preheat the oven 170 c

Sift flour, salt and baking powder into a bowl. Add water and oil. 
Knead it but not too 

Divide the dough into small balls around ping pong size (will make 8-10 balls).

Sprinkle a bit of flour onto the working space, flatten the ball into flat round circle (using rooting pin to make it as thin as possible)..

Cut the circle in four places diagnose but leave the center for the filling (see pic)

Then fold one size at the time opposite one another to form petals (see pic)

Place them on the baking tray lined with baking paper. 

Bake them in the oven for 20 mins or until they're golden brown..do not over cooked them as they can be too dry..
