Frequently Asked Questions About Cheese and Egg Bazlama
What is cheese and egg bazlama?
Cheese and egg bazlama is a Turkish flatbread meal made with bazlama, a soft, thick bread, filled or topped with cheese and egg. It is commonly cooked in a pan until the bread is warm, the cheese melts, and the egg is set.
How do you make cheese and egg bazlama?
Make cheese and egg bazlama by filling a split bazlama with cheese and egg, then cooking it in a covered pan over low heat. Turn it as needed so the bread browns without burning and the egg cooks through.
What cheese is best for cheese and egg bazlama?
A good melting cheese, such as Turkish kaşar or mozzarella, works well in cheese and egg bazlama. Feta can add a salty, tangy flavor, but it does not melt as smoothly, so combine it with a meltier cheese if you want a gooey filling.
Is cheese and egg bazlama the same as a Turkish gözleme?
No, cheese and egg bazlama is made with bazlama, a thick, soft flatbread, while gözleme is traditionally made by filling and griddling thin sheets of dough. Their fillings can overlap, but the breads and textures are different.
Can you add sucuk to cheese and egg bazlama?
Yes, sucuk—Turkish spiced sausage—is a common savory addition to cheese and egg bazlama. Cook it briefly first, then add it with the egg and cheese; its seasoning is salty and rich, so extra salt may not be needed.
How do you keep cheese and egg bazlama from getting soggy?
Keep cheese and egg bazlama from getting soggy by using a moderate amount of filling and cooking it over low heat with the pan uncovered at the end. If the egg is very wet, scramble it until just set before putting it in the bread.
Can cheese and egg bazlama be made ahead?
Cheese and egg bazlama is best cooked just before serving, since the egg can make the bread soft as it sits. You can prepare the cheese and other fillings ahead, then assemble and cook the bazlama when you are ready to eat.
How do you reheat cheese and egg bazlama?
Reheat cheese and egg bazlama in a covered skillet over low heat until the center is hot, turning it once if needed. A microwave is quicker, but it can make the bread chewy; avoid leaving cooked egg at room temperature for long.
Can you freeze cheese and egg bazlama?
Yes, cheese and egg bazlama can be frozen after it has cooled, though the egg may become slightly rubbery and the bread softer after thawing. Wrap portions airtight, thaw in the refrigerator, and reheat thoroughly in a pan.
What should you serve with cheese and egg bazlama?
Serve cheese and egg bazlama with fresh tomatoes, cucumber, olives, or a crisp salad to balance its warm, savory filling. For a Turkish-style breakfast, tea is a natural accompaniment; a bowl of soup also works for a fuller meal.

What is Cheese and Egg Bazlama?
Cheese and Egg Bazlama brings together bazlama, a soft, thick Turkish flatbread, with cheese and egg. The filling is tucked inside or cooked with the bread in a pan, making a simple, substantial dish that can be adapted to the cheeses available at home.
In Turkey, it is often served hot for breakfast, alongside tomatoes, cucumbers and tea, or eaten as a quick lunch. It also works well as a filling snack. The egg and cheese contribute protein and calcium, while the bread supplies much of the carbohydrate; a 100 g portion has 12.1 g of protein. For a lighter plate, use a modest amount of cheese and serve it with a fresh salad or sliced vegetables.
