Feta Borek Recipe

Feta Borek Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Filling

   In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until softened. Add ground beef, breaking it up with a spoon, and cook until browned. Stir in feta cheese, chopped parsley, black pepper, and salt. Mix well and remove from heat.

2. 2

   Assemble the Borek

   Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Lay out one sheet of phyllo dough and brush with melted butter or olive oil. Place another sheet on top and brush again. Place a generous amount of the beef and feta filling along one edge, then roll the phyllo tightly to form a log. Repeat with remaining phyllo and filling.

3. 3

   Bake the Borek

   Place the rolled borek on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops with the beaten egg for a golden finish. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.

4. 4

   Serve

   Remove from the oven, allow to cool slightly, then slice into pieces and serve warm.
