MEŞHUR DIZMANA (GÖÇMEN BÖREĞİ)

Ingredients Filling: 300g cottage cheese or cottage cheese (you can also use ground meat) 1 bunch of parsley Salt For the dough: 5-6 cups flour 1 cup milk 1 package fresh yeast (dry yeast also works) 1 tablespoon sugar Salt For the topping: 2 eggs 1 cup yogurt A little over 1/2 cup oil Salt Instructions: In a shallow bowl, place the flour (put half of it in the flour first, then add the rest as you knead). In 1 cup, add the yeast, 1 tablespoon sugar, and salt, and add the warm water. Stir until the yeast dissolves in the warm water. Once the yeast has fully risen, add it to the flour. Add 1 cup milk and the salt and begin kneading. It will take 1 more cup of water, but we will still make a soft dough, so knead it accordingly. Cover the kneaded dough and let it rise until it has doubled in size. Meanwhile, put the cottage cheese in a deep bowl and chop the washed parsley. Divide the risen dough into small orange-sized pieces. On a pastry board, roll the pieces out lengthwise with a rolling pin, as if you were going to make pita bread. Place the cottage cheese lengthwise in the middle of the rolled out dough and begin to seal it. It will form a roll. Cut the closed pieces into 2-finger-thick pieces. Put a little oil on a flat plate and dip only one side of the cut dough (this is to prevent them from sticking together. Don't place them on a deep plate because you'll dip the dough too much and it will become oily). Arrange them side by side on a greased baking sheet. If you're in a hurry, put a plastic bag over it to help it rise quickly. Pour the mixture of 2 eggs, 1 cup yogurt, and a little less than ½ cup oil, whisked in a bowl, all over the risen dough. We bake it in our oven preheated to 200 degrees until golden brown. Bon appetit.
