These savoury Turkish turnovers were prepared on the Big Pig using some cast iron pans and the Flat BBQ Plates. The dough is super simple and it’s easy to make a few different filling variations during the same cook as ingredients will cross over from one to the other.
GOZLEME DOUGH
(This recipe will make eight gozlemes)
Ingredients
4 cups plain flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 ½ cups water
¼ cup olive oil
Dough Method:
Method:
- Combine all ingredients in the bowl of a mixer or food processor and mix until a dough has formed. Turn out onto the counter and hand kneed until smooth. Cover with a cloth and allow to rest for 20 minutes.
- Divide dough into 8 equal parts then ball up. Pin the dough out into very thin rounds about 10 inches in diameter. Stack the dough sheets as you go, layering them with baking paper to prevent them from sticking. Allow the dough to rest for 5 minutes.

Gozlemes Recipe
Ingredients:

4 recipes of filling
100ml olive oil
Cacik (Turkish tzatziki) to serve
Lemon wedges to serve
Method:
- Prep the Ozpig for a low heat using either the Flat BBQ Plate or a cast iron pan.
- Lay a single sheet of dough on the counter and place a portion of filling over half the dough in a semicircular shape leaving a half inch space around the edge.
- Fold the dough over the filling and press around the edge to seal the parcel. Try not to trap too much air inside. Brush the parcel with olive oil and place on cooking surface. Allow to cook for 3 to 4 minutes until nicely browned and crisped on the first side. Turnover and repeat ensuring filling has heated through also.
- Slice each gozleme into 3 or 4 pieces and serve with lemon wedges and Cacik on the side.
