Spinach, leek, and zucchini are layered between thin yufka sheets and baked with a little oil to make a lighter börek. Baking instead of deep-frying gives brunch tables a lower-calorie option.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Prepare the Vegetables

8 min

Cook the spinach, leek, and grated zucchini in olive oil until softened, then let them cool.

2

Bind the Filling

4 min

Mix the cooled vegetables with the egg to finish the filling.

3

Layer the Yufka Sheets

13 min

Lightly moisten the yufka sheets with milk and a little olive oil. Arrange them in a baking pan, sprinkling the vegetable filling between the layers.

4

Bake

15 min

Bake in a preheated 190°C / 375°F oven for 15 minutes, until golden on top.

Reminder

Do not soak the yufka sheets too much when moistening them, or they may turn doughy and fail to crisp during baking. Contains gluten (yufka), egg, and dairy.

Yufkaları nemlendirirken elimi biraz ağır kullanmış olmalıyım, fırından çıkınca alt katlar hamur gibi kalmış çıtırlaşmamıştı. Üst katlar güzel kızarmıştı ama genel doku beklediğim gibi olmadı.
