Ingredients
Scale
- 3 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup lukewarm water
- 3 tablespoons olive oil (plus more for brushing)
- 4 cups baby spinach leaves (roughly chopped)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion (finely chopped)
- Salt (to taste)
- Freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
- 1/2 teaspoon Aleppo pepper (or pul biber)
- 1 cup drained and crumbled feta
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Create a well in the center and add lukewarm water and olive oil. Mix until a rough dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 2-3 minutes until smooth. Place it in an oiled bowl and cover with a damp towel; let rest for 20 minutes.
- For the filling, mix chopped spinach, onions, olive oil, salt, black pepper, and Aleppo pepper in another bowl. Add crumbled feta and combine well.
- Divide rested dough into six pieces; roll each piece into thin circles about 10½ inches in diameter.
- Place half a cup of filling on one half of each circle, fold over to seal, then pat down gently to remove air bubbles.
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium-high heat and cook each gözleme for about one minute on each side until lightly browned.
- Brush with olive oil before serving warm or at room temperature.
