Buttered potato and cheese gözleme is a Turkish stuffed flatbread filled with potato and cheese, cooked on a hot griddle, then brushed with butter. It is folded or sealed around the filling and served hot, while the cheese is still melted.
To make buttered potato and cheese gözleme, put cooled mashed potato and grated cheese on thinly rolled dough, fold it closed, and cook both sides on a hot, dry griddle. Brush the cooked gözleme with butter before serving.
Grated kaşar or another good-melting cheese works well in buttered potato and cheese gözleme. Add it to cooled potato rather than hot mash, so it does not melt prematurely and make the dough difficult to fill and seal.
Buttered potato and cheese gözleme is a variation of gözleme, a Turkish stuffed flatbread traditionally cooked on a large, domed griddle called a sac. The potato, cheese, and butter describe this particular filling and finish, rather than one fixed regional recipe.
Yes, buttered potato and cheese gözleme can be frozen after it has cooled. Separate pieces with baking paper in an airtight container, then thaw in the refrigerator and reheat in a pan for a better texture than microwaving from frozen.
Serve buttered potato and cheese gözleme with ayran, a fresh salad, or sliced tomatoes and cucumbers. These lighter accompaniments work well with the buttery pastry and rich filling; Turkish tea is also a familiar choice at breakfast or as a snack.
Reheat buttered potato and cheese gözleme in a dry skillet over medium-low heat, turning it until warmed through. A covered pan for a short time helps the cheese melt, while the skillet keeps the flatbread from becoming as soft as it can in a microwave.
Buttered potato and cheese gözleme often splits when it is overfilled, the potato filling is wet, or the edges are not sealed firmly. Cool and drain the filling, leave a clear border around it, and press the seam closed before placing the gözleme on the griddle.
Yes, you can prepare the dough for buttered potato and cheese gözleme ahead and keep it covered in the refrigerator. Store the filling separately, then let the dough lose its chill before rolling; this makes it easier to stretch without tearing.
Yes, buttered potato and cheese gözleme is often eaten as a filling breakfast or snack. Serve it hot with tea and fresh vegetables; because the potato and melted cheese make a substantial filling, a piece can also work as a quick lunch.

Buttered potato and cheese gözleme is a Turkish flatbread made by folding a thin sheet of dough around a filling of potato and cheese, then cooking it on a hot griddle. Butter is brushed on during or after cooking. In Turkey it is often served hot as a filling breakfast, a substantial snack with tea, or a quick meal; salad or ayran makes a refreshing accompaniment.
The dough and potato provide most of the carbohydrates, while the cheese adds protein and the butter makes it energy-dense: it has 300 calories per 100 g. It can be satisfying on its own, or served with vegetables for a more balanced plate. Use less butter if you prefer a lighter version.
