A classic sigara böreği made by wrapping thin phyllo around a cheese filling and frying it crisp in hot oil. A staple of teatime and guest tables, this snack is loved for its crispy exterior and soft interior.
Mix crumbled white cheese, chopped parsley, and black pepper in a bowl.
Place some of the filling on the wide edge of the triangle-cut phyllo sheets and roll into a cylinder shape. Fold in the edges and seal the ends with beaten egg.
Heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat in a pan. Fry the börek until every side turns golden. Caution: If the oil is too hot, the outside will burn; adjust the heat. Drain on paper towels and serve hot.
Important: To keep the börek from opening, seal the ends well with egg or water while rolling. Caution: Don't overheat the oil; fry over medium-high heat so the inside warms through before the outside burns. Contains gluten (yufka/phyllo) and dairy (cheese). It's tastiest hot.
The parsley added to the cheese filling adds both flavor and color. Instead of frying the börek, you can brush egg on top and bake it in the oven; this makes a lighter option.
