Cheese Garlic Potato Pide/Mozzarella Cheese Bread

Today I'm baking Pide. A pizza-like savory bread baked with potato, mozzarella cheese and sprinkled with dried pasley. The stuffing is base on your liking. 😊

This bread is called Pide [Pee-day] , a Turkish bread traditionally cooked in hot clay ovens. Originating from Turkey, Pide is an oval-shaped flatbread baked with various combinations of toppings or stuffings.

 My daughter said these bread are like pizza boat. Yes, thery are!😄
