Dumplings and filled pastries
Saray boregi is an impressive pastry from Ottoman palace cuisine, made by layering shredded kadayif with phyllo sheets, filling it with cheese, and baking until golden. Layering the kadayif without tearing it and cutting neat slices takes practice.
Mix the crumbled cheese with the egg and milk.
Spread half of the shredded kadayif in a baking dish with melted butter. Brush the phyllo sheets with butter, layer them on top, and spread the filling over them. Cover with the remaining phyllo and kadayif, then moisten thoroughly with butter.
Bake in an oven preheated to 180°C / 355°F for 40 minutes, until deep golden on top. Let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Cover the shredded kadayif with a damp cloth as you work; uncovered strands dry out and break quickly. Do not extend the baking time; remove it when the edges are deep golden. Allergens: contains gluten (phyllo), milk and dairy products (cheese), and eggs.
Tel kadayıfı çalışırken nemli bezle örtmeyi unuttum, bir kısmı kuruyup kırıldı ve katmanlar tarifte anlatıldığı gibi düzgün oluşmadı; 8 dilimlik kesim de bu yüzden bir hayli dağınık çıktı.
