Our famous gozlemes are back and even better than ever... meet our Thermomix Lamb, Spinach & Feta Gozleme - the most delicious dinner (and a great way to use up leftover lamb!).
Whenever we have leftover meat from a roast lamb, these gozlemes are on the menu! They're super delicious, easy to make and everyone in the family loves them (even Mr 3).
This recipe is identical to our classic cheesy spinach and feta gozleme recipe, but with the addition of thinly sliced cooked lamb. You can of course use leftover chicken or beef as well!
I love to cook these Thermomix Lamb, Spinach & Feta Gozlemes on the BBQ grill to get that smoky grilled taste... but they really are just as yummy cooked in a very hot frying pan (please note: the gozlemes in the photos were cooked on a frying pan).

Ingredients
For the dough

- 410 g warm water
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 20 g olive oil
For the filling
- 150 g cheese (mozzarella or cheddar) - or a combination

- 2 teaspoon minced garlic
- 20 g lemon juice
- 250 g feta crumbled
- 300 g cooked lamb
Instructions
- Place the flour, warm water, salt and olive oil into the Thermomix bowl. Mix for 10 seconds, Speed 10.
- Scrape down the sides and then mix for 2 minutes, Interval/Knead function.
- Place into a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Leave for at least 30 minutes to rest.
- Place the cheese into the Thermomix bowl and grate for 8 seconds, Speed 9. Set aside.
- Add the mint, parsley and baby spinach into the Thermomix bowl and mix for 15 seconds, Speed 8. Scrape down the sides and repeat until finely chopped.
- Add the the grated cheese, minced garlic, lemon juice and feta. Season with salt and pepper. Mix for 15 seconds, Speed 4.
- Thinly slice the cooked lamb and set aside.
- Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Roll each ball into a large, thin circle.TIP: the thinner your dough is rolled out, the crunchier your gozlemes will be!
- Place one-eighth of the mixture onto one side of the circle (leaving a 2cm gap near the outside edge), top with one-eighth of the sliced lamb.
- Fold the other half over and press down to seal the filling.
- Brush the dough with olive oil and cook over a BBQ grill or in a frying pan for approximately 5 minutes (flipping halfway through), until golden and crispy.
- Repeat with the remaining gozlemes (while keeping the others warm in the oven se to low).
- Cut into slices and serve with fresh lemon, dips and olives.
Notes
- Bakers flour will give you the best possible gozlemes... but plain flour will also work!
- Allow the dough to rest for 30 minutes.
- You can use a cheddar or mozzarella cheese or a combination of the two. I highly recommend using at least a portion of mozzarella as that's what will give you the oozy gooey cheese filling.
- Choose a soft feta (such as Danish feta) or a goats cheese.
- You can use thinly sliced leftover roast lamb - or substitute with chicken, beef or pork!
- Roll the dough out as thinly as you can (the thinner the dough, the crispier your gozlemes will be!
- Cook the gozlemes on a frying pan or BBQ.
- Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 2 days.
- Freeze leftovers for up to 3 months.
