Pogaca
(Half-moons with Feta Cheese)
Ingredients:
Main:
- 10 tbsp (155 ml) butter (room temperature)
- 70 ml extra virgin olive oil
- 2 cups flour (white, all purpose), sifted
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp plain yogurt
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1 pinch salt
Filling:
- 3/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
Top:
- 1 egg yolk (egg wash)
First pre-heat the oven to 175 C (350 F). Put all the main
ingredients in a deep plastic bowl. Mix well using your hand.
Take a small piece of dough (about the size of a plum), make a
little hole in it and then put 1 tbsp of the filling inside.
Close it up, giving it a half-moon shape.
Place the pieces on a baking tray. Then brush each Pogaca with
egg yolk for glazing. Bake for 20 minutes. This recipe will make
about 22 pieces.
Have with tea in the morning or afternoon. Pogaca will taste
better if you prepare the dough the day before you bake it and
leave in the fridge overnight.
