BAZLAMA RECIPE

Bazlama also known as the "village bread" is a leavened flatbread from Turkey that is traditionally cooked outdoors in wooden fires. They are a little thick & extremely soft, they also have a slight sour note to them as they're traditionally made with yoghurt/curd. When they're cooked they puff up & form a pocket. You can use these to have with curries or stuff them with your filling of choice like I did.

Reviews

The flavor of this bread is quite similar to that of a Naan, however, these Balzama pockets have a more soft and thick texture. Besides being easy to make, the pockets add a very appealing effect when served with curries. It can also be made into a healthy recipe by grating and stuffing it with a variety of vegetables.

Yes true. Also they form a pocket must easier than a naan.

Wow it's amazing, all ingredients are almost available in kitchens. We will try at home.

Thank you for all the love and support. For more such interesting recipes follow me on Instagram @eat_o_mania.
