Spinach and Feta Gozleme
My take on the delicious Turkish flatbread, spinach and feta gozleme. This flatbread only uses a few basic ingredients for the dough and the flatbreads are grilled in a pan, which makes it easier. The filling can be whatever you want, really. For this ones I'm going with the typical spinach and feta, with a slight adjustment. Read more about these wonderful flatbreads in my post link below.

CRISPY & FLAKY Phyllo Goulash - Baklava but make it SAVORY
Today we're making Goulash, the Savoury version of Baklawa. It's essentially a meat or vegetarian filling sandwiched between two layers of Phyllo pastry. The top and the bottom are made up of 8+ individual layers of Phyllo with butter between them. I'll show you how to make this using both Phyllo (Filo) or Puff Pastry.

Ingredients for Phyllo version:
1kg (2 lbs) Beef Mince
500g (1lb) Pack of Phyllo (Filo) pastry
250g (1/2 lb) Butter
150ml (2/3c) whole milk
2 Medium Brown (Spanish) onions
3 Garlic cloves
2 Tbsp Olive Oil
2 Tsp Salt
1 Large Egg or 2 Small Eggs
1/2 Tsp Pepper
1/2 Tsp Bharat (Optional)
Spinach Filling
Directions for Beef Filling:
1. Dice the onions into small cubes and mince your garlic
2. Add Olive oil to a pan on medium-high heat and add the onions, Saute for 2-3 minutes
3. Once the onions have softened add the garlic and saute for 5 minutes until onions are opaque, add any other vegetables you want now
4. Add the Salt, Pepper & any other seasonings you would like to the onions, stir, then push to one side of the pan
5. Add the Minced beef to the pan and press in firmly, allow it to brown for 5 minutes
6. Break the meat into sections and flip, allow it to fry for 4-5 minutes before breaking it up into small pieces with your spatula
7. Mix the onions into the meat and cook until a deep brown colour, remove and set aside
How to clarify butter:
1. Place your butter in a pot to melt on high heat until completely liquefied
2. Allow it to come to a boil and it will foam up
3. Your clarified butter is done cooking when you can see the golden melted butter in the pot, pour out into a jug to cool
Note: Make sure not to pour out any of the cooked milk solids into the jug.
How to assemble the Phyllo:
1. Prepare a 9 X 12 inch (22 X 30 cm) deep baking dish by brushing the base and walls with clarified butter
2. Lay a phyllo sheet in the dish allowing any excess to run up the walls of the dish
3. Using a pastry brush, coat the sheet from corner to corner with a thin layer of clarified butter. (You must coat all the surface including any excess pastry)
4. Place another Phyllo sheet on top, and press out any air bubbles. Allow it to adhere to the sheet below it. Coat it in butter once more and repeat this process until you have a minimum of 8 layers of phyllo
5. Using a sharp knife, trim off any excess phyllo that is running up the walls of the dish
6. Brush your topmost layer of phyllo with butter, then pour on your meat filling. Spread it out into one even layer from edge to edge
7. Place a sheet of Phyllo on top of the filling and then repeat the layering/laminating process with a minimum of 8 layers of Phyllo
8. When adding your last layer of Phyllo, trim any excess off the walls before placing it, then brush the top surface with butter
9. Using a sharp knife slice your pastry into equal sized portions, use a ruler to get accurate edges
10. Whisk together your milk and egg into an egg wash and then pour it evenly over the Goulash
11. Bake in a 180c or 350f oven for 40 minutes, rotating at the halfway point. Remove when it is Golden Brown all over and bubbling
12. Allow to cool for a minimum of half an hour before serving (it will be really buttery, that will be reabsorbed when cooled)
How to assemble the Puff Pastry Version:
When making the puff pastry version, you only need to do about half to two thirds of the filling amount. You will also need 2-3 300g (10.5 oz) pre-rolled puff pastry sheets.
1. Prepare a 9 X 12 inch (22 X 30 cm) deep baking dish by brushing the base and walls with clarified butter
2. Add a layer of pre-rolled puff pastry to the bottom of the dish and trim off any excess
3. Add half of your filling on top of the pastry in an even manner
4. Lay another layer of puff pastry on top
5. Add the remaining fill on top of this layer of puff pastry
6. Add the last layer of pastry then slice into portions
7. Make an eggwash like above and then pour onto the dish
8. Bake for 40-50 minutes until the top layer puffs up well
9. Allow to cool for 30 minutes before eating.
Note: The bottom two layers will not puff up, due to the weight of the layers above them and the eggwash holding everything in place. If you want them to crisp up, then I suggest rolling out a single layer of Puff Pastry into 2 thin layers then using them for the bottom and middle.

Lamb Pita Sandwiches
RECIPE COURTESY OF VALERIE BERTINELLI
Level: Easy
Total: 1 hr 30 min
Active: 25 min
Yield: 4 to 6 servings
Ingredients
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Kosher salt
2 to 2 1/2 pounds lamb stew meat, cut into 1- to 2-inch pieces, excess fat removed and discarded
Vegetable oil
1/2 cup red wine, such as Pinot Noir
One 14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes
2 vine tomatoes, seeds removed and chopped
Half a English cucumber, quartered and sliced
Half a white onion, sliced
1/4 cup chopped parsley
2 tablespoons chopped dill
1 tablespoon lemon juice (from 1 lemon)
4 to 6 pita pockets
One 10-ounce container hummus
1 head romaine lettuce, torn in half or in thirds
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions
Special equipment: electric pressure cooker
Add the coriander, cumin, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, cinnamon and 1 teaspoon of salt to a small mixing bowl. Whisk to combine. Add the spice mixture to the lamb stew meat and use tongs to coat the meat in the spices. Set aside.
Heat an electric pressure cooker to the sauté setting and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the pot. Once the oil is shimmering, add the stew meat in batches, being sure not to overcrowd the pot. Brown the meat on all sides, about 4 minutes, then remove to a plate. Add an additional tablespoon of oil, if needed, before adding another batch of meat. Once all the meat has been browned and removed from the pot, add the red wine to deglaze, stirring and scraping the bottom to release any brown bits stuck to the base of the pot. Once the alcohol smell has burned off, 1 to 2 minutes, add the canned diced tomatoes and the browned meat. Stir to combine.
Place the lid on the pressure cooker and seal. Set to high pressure according to the manufacturer's instructions. Once at high pressure cook for 15 minutes then allow the pressure cooker to naturally release for 10 minutes before manually venting the rest.
While the lamb cooks, add the fresh chopped tomatoes, cucumber, onion, parsley, dill, lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper to a medium bowl. Toss to combine and set aside until ready to assemble.
To assemble, slice each pita in half and open to create a pocket. Slather each side of the pocket with hummus, then add in a few pieces of romaine lettuce, covering the hummus. Next add a few spoonfuls of the cucumber-onion mixture and top with a few pieces of cooked lamb. Continue the process with the remaining ingredients.
Cook’s Note
Save any leftover sauce from the pressure cooker as a base for making sauces, pasta, gravy, etc.
