This dish was made for me by a Bosnian friend of a friend :). I adored the taste and simplicity of the dish. True and honest comfort food.

Time 50m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

400 g potatoes (in small cubes, raw)
250 g phyllo pastry sheets
1 large onion (finely chopped)
2 garlic cloves (minced)
1 teaspoon allspice (more or less, according to taste)
4 tablespoons melted butter
oil
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a non stick pan and add small potatoe cubes. Let fry until they are crispy and brown.
  • After a couple of minutes (before potatoe cubes go brown) add onion and garlic. Don't let them burn.(you can add a bit of water to prevent that from happening).
  • Add allspice, salt and pepper to taste.
  • Butter a dish/pyrex/ with one TB of meltet butter.
  • Take one phyllo sheet, brush with meltet butter, and put another pastry sheet on top of it.
  • Place potatoe filling on one end of the phyllo sheets.
  • Roll up like a cigar and form a spiral.
  • Do so with the rest of sheets and filling.
  • Place burek spirals into form and brush with the rest of the melted butter.
  • Let bake at 180°C until golden, crispy (about 15 to 20 minutes).
  • Enjoy with salad and/or yoghurt sauce.
