“Pogacoh” we call, these are very traditional breakfast or tea time treats in Turkey and have different kind of fillings : cheese, potato, ground meat,spinach . In this recipe I used corn flour and spinach and kale as well as red pepper and feta cheese.I used 2 cups of corn flour and 1,5 cups wheat flour for the dough.But next time I will use 1 cup corn flour 2 cups of wheat flour instead.I like crunchy taste,my daughter really love it, but I am adjusting this recipe for the better taste. another trick is if you are using spinach or kale,and bell peppers, you sprinkle a tea spoon salt over them, a few minutes later you will squeeze excess water out of the vegetables.or use ground meat with sauteing onions in a small pan with little oil,with ground meat adding salt .pepper and some garlic,maybe some tomato paste for the color,and cool it for filling.
