Time 45m

Yield 35-40 appetizers, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 ounces feta cheese, grated
8 ounces mozzarella cheese, grated
2 eggs, beaten
3 tablespoons parsley, chopped
3 tablespoons chives, chopped
3 tablespoons mint, chopped
1 pinch nutmeg
8 ounces phyllo pastry
3 -4 tablespoons melted butter
salt & fresh ground pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl, blend the feta and mozzarella cheese with the beaten eggs. Add the chopped herbs, season with pepper and nutmeg and stir well to mix.
  • Cut the sheets of pastry into four rectangular strips approximately 3 inches wide. Cover all but one or two strips with a damp cloth to prevent them from drying out.
  • Brush on strip of pastry at a time with a little melted butter. Place 1 teaspoon filling at the bottom edge. Fold one corner over the filling to make a triangle shape. Continue folding the pastry over itself until you get to the end of the strip. Keep making triangles until all the mixture is used up.
  • Place the boreks on a greased baking sheet and bake in the oven for about 30 minutes or until golden brown.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my boreks turned out nothing like the pictures. They were dense and chewy, and the filling was dry.

I tried making these boreks, but the phyllo dough was too difficult to work with. I ended up making a mess of my kitchen.

I'm not a huge fan of phyllo dough, but these boreks were surprisingly good. The filling was flavorful and the dough was crispy and flaky.
