How to Make Sandwich Poğaça (Turkish Savory Pastry Rolls)
In a bowl, knead together 1 water glass of yogurt, 1 egg, 1 egg white, 1 tea glass of vegetable oil, 2 tablespoons of margarine, 1 dessert spoon of salt, flour as needed, and 1 packet of baking powder until the dough no longer sticks to your hands. Take pieces of dough roughly the size of a mandarin orange and roll each one out into an oval shape on a work surface. Place white cheese in the center and roll up like a log. Brush the tops of the poğaça with egg yolk and sprinkle with nigella seeds. Arrange on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and bake at 200°C (390°F).
