Instructions

1. Put the yogurt in a large bowl. This is followed by egg, baking soda, salt, oil, flour and the packet of dry yeast. Add a dash of milk and knead the dough with one hand, with the other you add more milk, depending on how you feel, until a smooth dough is formed. For me, a maximum of three shots of milk is enough.
2. Then sprinkle some flour on a worktop and continue kneading the dough with both hands until it is nice and soft and supple, but not too smooth. The uneven structure of a pogaçe is actually one of the main concerns. Finally, the dough is placed on a greased tray or lined with baking paper. There it is not kneaded too roughly with the ball of the hand until it has turned into a flat dough.
3. Now prick the dough in several places with a fork and brush with a little oil. Let it rest for approx. 15 minutes and then bake in a preheated oven at 200 degrees for approx. 25 minutes. It is best to observe the baking time from 15 minutes.
4. Note: Pogaçe is eaten warm with scrambled eggs, ajvar, sheep cheese, olives and fried pointed peppers in yogurt sauce for breakfast. A glass of freshly brewed black tea (Çaj) should of course not be missing. It should not be confused with the almost identical Turkish pastries pogaca, which are mostly filled.
