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
  • 0.5 packages cream cheese , 8 ounce
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 package phyllo dough , 8 ounce
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup vegetable oil

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet lightly.

    Mix feta cheese, sour cream, cottage cheese, cream cheese, and eggs together in a bowl. Whisk milk and oil together in a small bowl.

  3. 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.
