Description

This börek recipe is a savory pastry that I have prepared many times and is always well received! The combination of the crispy dough and the spicy filling of minced meat and onions is simply irresistible. I use Farina 00 for the dough, which makes it particularly smooth. The preparation takes some time, but the result is worth it. Perfect for a brunch or as a savory snack in between. With a fresh salad, it's a great dish. If you like, you can refine the filling with some paprika or chili.
