Homemade Su Boregi image

Su boregi is a classic Turkish street food available at many borek shops. It is like mix between a pie and a lasagna. This recipe for a home version is from a friend of mine in Istanbul. I tweaked it a little bit.

Time 1h5m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb phyllo dough, thawed
1/2 cup olive oil
2 cups part-skim ricotta cheese
2 cups feta cheese
1 bunch parsley, minced
1 small onion, minced
3 eggs
1 1/2 liters of fizzy mineral water

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and oil a 16 inch round baking pan -- if this is not available use a 9X13 baking pan.
  • Combine cheeses, onions, parsley, and one egg. Mix until this is smooth.
  • Spread out a sheet of phyllo dough.
  • Brush with olive oil. Top with another.
  • On top the this spread some of the cheese mixture. Roll this up from the long side.
  • In the baking pan coil the phyllo roll.
  • Repeat the steps with the phyllo dough and cheese. Coil each roll around the central roll. You will be making one large spiral.
  • Beat the remaining two eggs and pour this over the phyllo rolls. Pour the bottle of mineral water over this and put in the oven immediately.
  • Bake for about 30 minutes, or until the top is dry, crisp, and golden brown.
