Lamb bôreks
- Difficulty
Easy
Published 1999
A popular Turkish savoury pie, but also found in other parts of the Middle East, bôreks are made with layers of buttered filo pastry that enclose a filling of spiced meat or cheese. Buy a good-quality (preferably locally made) filo and keep it covered with a damp tea towel while rolling the pastries, as it dries out very quickly.
