An Eastern European delicacy. Probably one of the most loved foods from the Balkans. There are two ways to create burek: with homemade dough or with phyllo dough (pre-made store-bought). In this recipe we will be using the pre-made phyllo dough. You can put potatoes, meat, spinach, boiled cabbage, or feta cheese inside! This one will be with feta cheese. Truly a tasty meal! And very easy to make! Eat with yogurt for authenticity.
Ingredients
- 1 cup feta cheese
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- ½ (8 ounce) package cream cheese (such as Philadelphia®), softened
- 2 eggs
- 1 (8 ounce) package phyllo dough
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup vegetable oil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet lightly.
Step 2
Mix feta cheese, sour cream, cottage cheese, cream cheese, and eggs together in a bowl. Whisk milk and oil together in a small bowl.
Step 3
Brush milk-oil mixture over 3 sheets of phyllo dough and stack together. Place some of the cheese mixture in a straight line on one end of the dough. Roll up tightly to form a spiral shape. Transfer spiral to the baking sheet. Repeat with remaining milk-oil mixture, phyllo dough, and cheese mixture.
Step 4
Bake burek in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 40 minutes.
Cook?s Note
Feta cheese is salty, so apply moderately. Although it is good to be generous, in this case, a decent amount goes a long way.
