Buttered Kashar cheese gözleme is a Turkish flatbread folded around Kashar, a firm, meltable Turkish cheese, then cooked on a griddle or in a pan. Butter is brushed over the cooked bread, giving it a richer finish than a plain cheese gözleme.
To make buttered Kashar cheese gözleme, roll the dough thin, scatter grated Kashar over one half, fold it over, and seal the edges. Cook it in a hot, dry pan until browned on both sides, then brush with butter while hot.
Mozzarella or mild cheddar can replace Kashar in buttered Kashar cheese gözleme if Kashar is unavailable. Choose a cheese that melts well, and avoid adding too much filling: a thick layer can make the gözleme difficult to seal and cook evenly.
The Kashar usually leaks from buttered Kashar cheese gözleme when the edges are not sealed firmly or the bread is overfilled. Keep the cheese away from the rim, press the folded edges together, and check the seal before placing it in the pan.
Cook buttered Kashar cheese gözleme in a fully heated, ungreased pan and roll the dough thin for a crisp, browned surface. Brush on only a light coating of butter after cooking; adding butter too early can make the bread greasy or cause it to brown too quickly.
No, buttered Kashar cheese gözleme is a Turkish griddled flatbread, while a quesadilla is usually made with a tortilla. Both can hold melted cheese, but gözleme dough is typically rolled fresh and folded around its filling before cooking.
Buttered Kashar cheese gözleme pairs well with a crisp salad, sliced tomatoes, or cucumber, which balance its buttery, melted-cheese filling. For a Turkish-style breakfast, serve it with tea; it is also convenient as a warm lunch or snack.
Yes, reheat buttered Kashar cheese gözleme in a dry skillet over low-to-medium heat, turning it until the center is warm and the cheese melts again. A microwave works quickly but tends to soften the flatbread rather than restore its browned texture.
Cooked buttered Kashar cheese gözleme keeps for about three days in the refrigerator when cooled and stored in a sealed container. Reheat it thoroughly before eating, and do not leave the cheese-filled bread sitting at room temperature for an extended period.
Yes, buttered Kashar cheese gözleme freezes well once fully cooled. Separate portions with baking paper and seal them in a freezer-safe container; reheat from thawed in a skillet to bring back some browning without making the bread soggy.

Buttered Kashar Cheese Gözleme is a Turkish griddled flatbread made from thinly rolled dough filled with kaşar, a mild, slightly tangy semi-hard cheese. It is usually brushed with butter after cooking, or cooked with butter, until the cheese melts and the dough turns golden.
In Turkey, it is commonly eaten hot for breakfast, as a quick lunch, or with tea; gözleme stalls also serve it as a filling snack. The dough makes it a substantial, carbohydrate-rich choice, while the cheese contributes protein and calcium. For a lighter meal, ask for less butter and pair a portion with a fresh salad or greens.
Medium
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
