Similarity with Famous Indian Aloo Paratha
This recipe reminds me of a very familiar and popular dish called Aloo Paratha. In Aloo Paratha we usually use different spices sometimes even more spices or extra veggies. The classic version of Aloo Paratha doesn’t include vegetables but nowadays things have changed a bit but Still in some places you’ll find the traditional version.
Wheat Flour Twist
Turkish Gözleme is usually made with all-purpose flour but in my recipe I used wheat flour. I feel more comfortable using wheat flour so that’s what I chose. But you can definitely use all-purpose flour too it works perfectly fine for this recipe.
