Borek with Seltzer (Maden Suyu/Sodali Borek)

1 lb (454 gr) Phyllo Pastry / 3-4 yufka
3 L (13*9*2”) Pyrex casserole dish
1 egg
¼ tsp salt
½ cup milk
1/3 cup oil
1½ cup Seltzer (mineral water)
1 tsp sesame seeds (optional)
1 tsp nigella seeds (optional)

Filling for Borek with cheese :
100-150 gr crumbled feta cheese or Mexican crumbling cheese
½ cup parsley or dill chopped (optional)
2-3 tbsp yogurt (optional)

Take the ingredients in a bowl or plate and mix them.


In a bowl; place the egg, oil, Seltzer and milk. Mix them with a whisk. You will use this mixture between each layer of the pastry and for the top of the borek.After greasing the Pyrex dish, place two or three layers of pastry/1 yufka on the bottom and let it go out over the sides of the dish. Spread 3 tbsp of the mixture all over and place some of the filling you are using and spread it evenly. Take the other 2-3 sheets of pastry/1 yufka and wrinkle them up in order to fit to the dish (see the picture). Continue layering in the same way; first the liquid mixture and then the filling.When you place the last pastry sheets/yufka, fold the sides of the bottom sheet over the borek.
Cut the borek into desired size squares. Sprinkle with nigella and sesame seeds. Pour the remaining liquid mixture on top of the borek evenly.Preheat the oven to 350 F(180 C) and bake for about 30-45 minutes, until it turns lightly brown.
Serve warm.
ENJOY

Hello Hayriye,
I just discovered your excellent website. I already tried your "Borek with Seltzer" and was very impressed by it's taste. I used real yufka though. The good thing about it is that I didn't have to leave it in the fridge overnight like the other Sodali Boreks. Cok cok sagol. Your recipes are very healthy, tasty and nice to look at. Kariyerinde cok basarili olacagindan eminim.

Not: Peynirli kek tarifin de varmi acaba?
