Knead the flour, water, yeast and salt into a soft dough for 8 minutes.
Rest the dough for 20 minutes so the gluten relaxes and it does not tear while rolling thin.
Mix the cokelek, pepper paste, olive oil, sesame seeds and nigella seeds.
Roll the dough thinly and spread the filling all the way to the edges.
Bake in a 220°C oven for 12 minutes, until the edges brown.
Rest the biberli ekmek for 5 minutes and serve warm.
💡 Tip: Keeping the filling from being too watery prevents the center of the dough from staying underbaked in the oven.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Slice and serve warm with ayran or tea.
