Knead the flour, warm water, and salt into a soft dough that does not stick to your hands.
Divide the dough into 6 balls and rest covered for 30 minutes.
Melt the butter, mix it with the vegetable oil, and keep it warm.
Roll each dough ball thin, brush the surface with fat, and fold it like an envelope.
Rest the folded doughs for 10 more minutes; this makes spreading them easier without opening the layers.
Roll the doughs out to 18 cm rounds and place them on a heated tray.
Bake the Tokat yaglisi in a 210°C oven for 16 to 18 minutes, until puffed and browned.
Place the cokelek and tomatoes on a serving plate, and slice the yaglisi once its heat drops slightly.
💡 Tip: Brush on the butter warm, not hot; very hot fat soaks the dough and glues the layers together.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Slice Tokat yaglisi 6 minutes after it comes out of the oven and serve it on a breakfast tray with optional cokelek, tomatoes, and strong tea.
