INGREDIENTS 8
DIFFICULTY EASY
SERVINGS 6

Ingredients

600g (4 cups) plain flour
1 tsp salt
410ml (12/3 cups) warm water
125ml (1/2 cup) olive oil
250g feta, finely grated
100g fresh ricotta, crumbled
4 shallots, trimmed, finely chopped
6 cups (1 bunch) finely shredded silverbeet leaves

Method

Step 1 Sift flour and salt into a bowl. Make a well in the centre. Add water and 2 tablespoons of oil. Mix until a dough comes together. Turn onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 10 minutes or until smooth and elastic. Cover and set aside overnight to rest.

Step 2 Divide the dough into 6 equal portions. Roll out 1 portion on a lightly floured surface to a 45 x 20cm rectangle.

Step 3 Combine feta, ricotta, shallot and silverbeet in a bowl. Top one half of the dough with one-sixth of the feta mixture, leaving a 3cm border. Fold in half to enclose the filling. Use a rolling pin to seal the edges. Repeat with remaining dough and feta mixture.

Step 4 Preheat a barbecue flat plate on medium-low. Drizzle over a little remaining oil. Cook 2-3 gözleme, drizzling over a little remaining oil, for 5 minutes each side or until golden. Repeat, in 2 more batches, with the remaining gözleme and oil. Cut into slices.

Notes

Allow overnight standing time.
