String Cheese and Sucuk Gözleme uses çeçil, a Turkish cheese with a stringy texture. It softens as the gözleme cooks, while sucuk—a seasoned, cured Turkish sausage—adds a savory, spiced flavor to the filling.
String Cheese and Sucuk Gözleme can be mildly or noticeably spicy, depending on the sucuk. Sucuk is usually seasoned with garlic and spices, sometimes including red pepper; the cheese and flatbread soften its heat.
Cook String Cheese and Sucuk Gözleme in a hot, dry pan and avoid overfilling it. If the sucuk releases excess fat, briefly cook it first and drain it before adding it to the cheese-filled dough.
Yes, you can make String Cheese and Sucuk Gözleme with thin store-bought flatbread. Add the çeçil cheese and cooked sucuk, fold it closed, and toast it in a pan until the outside is crisp and the filling is hot.
Gözleme is a traditional Turkish stuffed flatbread, but String Cheese and Sucuk Gözleme is one filling variation rather than a single fixed regional recipe. Its combination of çeçil cheese and sucuk brings together two familiar Turkish ingredients.
Yes, you can assemble String Cheese and Sucuk Gözleme ahead and cook it later. Keep the uncooked, filled gözleme covered in the refrigerator and cook it promptly so the dough does not become damp from the filling.
Reheat String Cheese and Sucuk Gözleme in a dry skillet over medium-low heat, turning it once. This crisps the flatbread and warms the cheese and sucuk without making the outside as soft as microwave reheating can.
Serve String Cheese and Sucuk Gözleme with a fresh tomato-cucumber salad, plain yogurt, or ayran, a Turkish yogurt drink. These cool, fresh sides balance the savory filling without adding another heavy component.
String Cheese and Sucuk Gözleme can be eaten cold, but it is usually more enjoyable warm. As it cools, the cheese firms up and the flatbread loses its crispness; reheat leftovers in a skillet for a better texture.
String Cheese and Sucuk Gözleme can serve as a meal, especially when paired with vegetables or salad. Because the sucuk and cheese make the filling rich and salty, a fresh side is a better match than another salty or fried food.

String Cheese and Sucuk Gözleme is a Turkish flatbread filled with çeçil, a mild, pull-apart cheese, and sucuk, a spiced, cured sausage. The dough is rolled thin, folded around the filling and cooked on a hot griddle or traditional saç. As it heats, the cheese softens and the sausage lends the centre a savoury, peppery flavour.
It is best served hot, when the cheese is soft and stretchy. In Turkey, gözleme is enjoyed at breakfast, as a snack with tea or as a simple meal; elsewhere, it also makes a handy lunch with salad. This filling combination provides protein and calcium, but is high in sodium and saturated fat. For a lighter plate, use less filling and add a crisp salad.
