BOREK (TURKISH MEAT ROLLS) RECIPE - FOOD.COM



Borek (Turkish Meat Rolls) Recipe - Food.com image

These are a delicious, turkish version of the spring rolls. Great as main dish served with salad. I got this recipe from someone who brought time to a potluck. I submitted the original recipe, the stuff in brackets is what I had on had when I made them. It’s hard to find sheeps cheese around here unless you go to a specialty food store.

Total Time 45 minutes

Prep Time 30 minutes

Cook Time 15 minutes

Yield 24 pcs, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 lb ground lamb (I used beef and pork mix)
3/4 lb sheep's milk cheese (I used feta crumbled)
1 garlic clove, minced
1/4 cup parsley, chopped
1 teaspoon thyme
pepper
8 sheets phyllo dough
1 egg
2 tablespoons water
1/4 cup olive oil (for frying)

Steps:

  • Brown meat in pan at medium-hi heat.
  • Drain and transfer browned meat to a medium bowl to cool.
  • When the meat has cooled crumble cheese and add to the meat.
  • Add the parsley, garlic thyme and pepper and mix well.
  • Let this sit for 30 minutes.
  • In a small bowl beat the egg with water to make an egg wash.
  • Working quickly now, so the phyllo does not dry out.
  • Take 1 sheet phyllo dough brush or spray with olive oil, place another sheet on top and brush or spray again.
  • Cut the two sheets into six rectangles.
  • Take a good tablespoon of meat mix and place it about an 1 ½” to 2 inches up from one of the corners of the rectangle.
  • Lift the corner of the pastry and fold over the meat mixture, then lift and fold the corner on the right and then left to make and envelope about 3- 4 inches wide, then roll up to top.
  • Repeat for the next five pieces.
  • Brush with egg wash.
  • Heat some of the olive oil in a heavy pan a fry the meat rolls, turning to brown on all sides, lightly flatten them with spatula while frying.
  • Repeat the dough and rolling with the rest of the dough sheets.
  • These are also very nice cold.
  • I sometimes use a Tzatziki sauce for dip or mint sauce if using lamb.

CHEESE BOREK RECIPE | ALLRECIPES



Cheese Borek Recipe | Allrecipes image

The usual filling is feta cheese; this version calls for smoked Gouda and Emmenthal. If you have never worked with phyllo before, know that it is very fragile and must be kept covered or it will dry out very quickly. This is labor-intensive, but worth it. I like to divide the filling ahead of time into 48 equal little portions to ensure that all the borek are uniform in size. This may be made a day before they are baked, and stored covered in the refrigerator.
