Step 1

Sift flour and salt together in a large bowl. Form a well in the center . Pour olive oil and water into the well and work together to form a soft dough with your fingers. Be sure to knead the dough thoroughly (at least 10 minutes).

Step 2

Cut dough into 4 equally sized pieces. Knead and roll into balls using the palms of your hands. Place on a floured surface and cover with a damp kitchen towel. Allow to rest for 30 minutes.

Step 3

Saute onion in butter or olive oil until translucent. Add spices and stir until fragrant. Add all remaining ingredients and taste for seasoning. Set aside.

Step 4

Roll the dough balls into 10-inch rounds. (This may take some time, the dough is very elastic.) Place approximately 1 Tbsp of the potato filling in the center of each round, spreading into a square or rectangle approximately 4 inches in size. (add a bit more if you like. It's totally up to you.)

Step 5

Fold two opposing sides of the dough over the filling, then fold the remaining two sides over. Press firmly, but not firmly enough to smash the gozleme.

Step 6

Heat a nonstick or extremely well seasoned cast iron skillet over medium heat. Brush skillet with oil or butter. Place wrapped gozleme in skillet one-at-a-time, solid side down carefully. Cook until brown circles (Or little eyes) form on the dough. Turn and brush with oil or butter. Cook folded side until "little eyes" form. Remove from heat. Repeat for remaining gozleme.

Step 7

Serve warm.
