Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a bowl, mix the crumbled feta cheese, chopped spinach, beaten egg, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Phyllo Dough

    Lay out one sheet of phyllo dough on a clean surface. Brush lightly with olive oil. Place another sheet on top and brush again with olive oil.

  3. 3

    Fill and Roll

    Take a small amount of the filling and place it near one edge of the dough. Fold the sides in and roll it tightly to form a cigar shape. Repeat with the remaining sheets and filling.

  4. 4

    Bake

    Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Place the rolled boreks on a lined baking tray. Brush the tops with olive oil and sprinkle sesame seeds. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
