    • Mix the water, sugar and yeast in a cup. Let the mixture sit for 3 minutes.
    • Combine the flour and salt in a large bowl and make a hole in the centre. Add in the butter and yeast mixture.
    • Mix with a wooden spatula until the mixture is no longer sticky. Knead by folding the dough onto itself for a couple of minutes
    • Transfer the dough on your counter and knead for about 6-7 minutes until it is smooth and elastic.
    • Divide the dough into 7 lumps, each will be around 120 g. To shape each dough into balls, press on the dough with your palm and roll it. Press gently with your thumb to push it inwards and use your other fingers to roll it. Release the pressure slowly while the dough is getting rounder.
    • Dust a tray with flour and place the dough balls in it. Dust them again and cover with a damped kitchen cloth.
    • Let the dough rise for 40-45 minutes at room temperature or 30 minutes in a warm place.
    • Meanwhile, heat your oven to 280 C (535 F) and place a tray into the top shelf upside down. You can also prepare the filling while the dough is resting.
    • Dust your work surface and roll out each dough ball to 40 cm (16 in) length, 12-15 cm width (5-6 in) and 2-3 mm (1/10) thick with a rolling pin. Roll out rounder and wider, around 20 cm (7-8 in), if making pide with egg.
    • Transfer the dough onto a pizza peel and shake off the excess flour.
    • To make the Pide with kaşar cheese, place the cheese on top of the dough and spread it evenly, leaving a 2-3 cm (1 in) gap by the edge. Place the halved tomatoes and peppers on top. Fold the empty sides over the filling and pinch both ends together. Brush away the excess flour.
    • Slide the pide into the bottom of the oven and bake for 4-5 minutes until it is crisp on the bottom. Then transfer the pide to the tray, which is already on a higher rack. Bake for another 2 minutes until it is golden brown. Grease the pide with butter during the last 30 seconds of baking.
    • To make the Pide with kaşar and egg, place the cheese on top of the dough and spread it evenly, leaving a 2-3 cm (1 in) gap by the edge. Fold the empty sides over the filling and pinch both ends together. Brush away the excess flour.
    • Slide the pide into the bottom of the oven and bake for 4-5 minutes until it is crisp on the bottom. Then place the peppers, crack the egg and sprinkle the red pepper flakes on top and bake for another 2 minutes on the tray, which is already in a higher rack. Grease the pide with butter during the last 30 seconds of baking.
    • To make the Pide with meat (Kuşbaşılı), place the cheese on top of the dough and spread it evenly, leaving a 2-3 cm (1 in) gap by the edge. Spread the mixture on top. Fold the empty sides over the filling and pinch both ends together. Brush away the excess flour.
    • Slide the pide into the bottom of the oven and bake for 4-5 minutes until it is crisp on the bottom. Then transfer the pide to the tray, which is already in a higher rack. Bake for another 2 minutes until it is golden brown. Grease the pide with butter during the last 30 seconds of baking.
    • To make the Pide with pastırma and sucuk, place the cheese on top of the dough and spread it evenly, leaving a 2-3 cm (1 in) gap by the edge. Place the pastırma, sucuk, green pepper and red pepper flakes on top. You can dice the sucuk and pastırma, if you like. Fold the empty sides over the filling and pinch both ends together. Brush away the excess flour.
    • Slide the pide into the bottom of the oven and bake for 4-5 minutes until it is a crisp on the bottom. Then transfer the pide to the tray, which is already in a higher rack. Bake for another 2 minutes until it is golden brown. Grease the pide with butter during the last 30 seconds of baking. Garnish with parsley leaves.
    • To make the Pide with white cheese, place the cheese on top of the dough and spread it evenly, leaving a 2-3 cm (1 in) gap by the edge. Place the spring onion, parsley, nigella seeds, red pepper flakes and cured meat on top. Fold the empty sides over the filling and pinch both ends together. Brush away the excess flour.
    • Slide the pide into the bottom of the oven and bake for 4-5 minutes until it is crisp on the bottom. Then transfer the pide to the tray, which is already in a higher rack. Bake for another 2 minutes until it is golden brown. Grease the pide with butter during the last 30 seconds of baking.
    • Your crispy, freshly baked, madly delicious pides are ready. I highly recommend you enjoy with your choice of popular pide accompaniment - ayran (a cold savoury yogurt-based drink), şalgam (fermented turnip and black carrot juice) or Turkish black tea.

    In 2019 I travelled to Istanbul and Bodrum for the first time. It was the best trip I've ever taken. Then, during October 2020, I got really bored in California and decided to take trip to Bodrum for 3 weeks. This was the best 3 weeks of my 60 years on this planet! What I experienced was the warmth, hospitality, friendliness, culture and the absolute best food like Rafika's dishes.
    Rafika is what your average Turk is like. Nice, warm, inviting and a true representative of her nation. It's obvious that because of her videos, I am now approximately 40 pounds heavier and I have to fight my wife over who gets to cook. I've replicated her Adana Kebab and several other dishes and everyone around me thinks I'm some sort of professional chef! I then bring up her videos and show them where I learned it. Thank you Refika for these videos. I am now in process of preparing to make my move to Turkey (Bodrum) as a retiree and can't wait till I get there!
    LOVE IT!

    This year I have hosted a high school student from Turkey. He is such a lovely man and is very proud of his culture. He has introduced me to your channel. In the past, all the Turkish food that I have enjoyed has been from a restaurant. We have made several of your recipes and last week I made pide and milk helva all by myself and everyone who was here loved it. You made it look so easy that I felt confident that I could make it. My nieces helped make a few as well and we made various combinations with ingredients we had on hand. My favorite was cheese, peppers and tomato. Thank you for sharing. When I come to visit Turkey I am going to look you up to thank you.

    Waaayyyy back in 1954 to 1958 I lived in Ankara (ages 7 to 11) - and loved it. I am so happy to find so many of the foods that I miss from that time on your show. Also I am amazed how much of the Turkish language is coming back to me just watching your show. My family would come up to Istanbul for various events and we would stay at the Hilton. My parents took me once to the Topkapi Museum and it made an indelible impression on me. But of course the simit, salt crusted pistachios also stuck there too. Nothing is better than Turkish street food! Food flavors seemed to be more intense over there. Thank you for a wonderful show. Keep on no matter what.

Now, instead of pizza saturdays we will be having pide saturdays.

    I grew up eating pides & gozlemes in Sydney, Australia.
    I have so many memories of waking up & waiting until the Turkish restaurant down the road would open at 9:30am & grabbing some for breakfast for me & my mum. I didn’t realize it but that shaped so much of my preferences for food later in life.
    Living in America now, easy access to Turkish food is something I miss so much from Australia. And now I just made the tastiest pides in my kitchen!

    I also made one with sundried tomatoes peppers , Mozarella and parmesan . Equally tasty!

    This is a happy demonstration. I feel better for having watched it. Also it is very clear, well explained. It is very good to give temperatures instead of just saying ‘warm’ ‘hot’ etc. Good too the snippets of Turkish.

    Best episode yet. Pizza is my favorite food and your recipes are almost insanely mouth-watering. Plus you gave us nice cameos of the whole crew. (And the camera didn't break down). Warmest wishes to Refika & Co. from Los Angeles

    REFIKA! omg I just discovered you a few weeks now and where have you been all my life??? I see you like a sister with incredible skills making food I would kill to eat even at 5am or ANYTIME. I mean- seriously... Can you adopt me?! lol I want to know EVERYTHING... everyyyything about your food. Some things are similar to Sicilian cooking so I am very very partial to your cooking. I want your rolling pin, beautiful wooden pizza and bread planks- everything! I can go on and on about every recipe I watched. Turkey looks beautiful. My old boss was from Turkey and she never shared her culture and food with us I feel cheated. Woman- I am probably going to try making every recipe. If you have supplies... I want I want I want ( if or when I can). Refika you are my new idol thank you guys for these amazing videos they are a pleasure to watch🙏😍👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌

    You have been my go-to channel for amazing food and your incredibly hummus. I have made it so many times, it has become a staple in our home. I get rave reviews from anyone who tries it. But most of all, I come to hang out and visit with you and your crew. I feel like we are all old friends and you have no idea how much all of you helped me through the Corona quarantine. My husband and I literally stayed in the house for one year, without visitors. You were my family during this tough time. I love each of you. Thank you for the amazing food, the laughs and the educational bits. You are truly amazing and beautiful. Warm hugs from Graham Washington. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
