🇹🇷 Turkey recipe
Su Böreği
Su Boregi (water borek) is a unique Turkish pastry where sheets of hand-rolled dough are briefly boiled in salted water, then layered with a creamy white cheese and parsley filling, and baked until golden. The boiling step gives the layers their distinctive silky, slippery texture that sets this borek apart from all others. It is a staple of Turkish breakfasts and celebrations.
