Ingredients: 930 cal (8 servings)
- 4 glasses flour
- 1/4 glass water
- 8 eggs
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 2 glasses melted margarine
- 250 gr. grated white cheese
- 5 glasses milk
- 1 bunch parsley
- 16 glasses water
- 8 tablespoons salt
- corn starch
Sprinkle flour over a wooden board, make a well in
the centre and add 4 eggs, 2 glasses milk, 1 glass
melted margarine, water and 1 tablespoon salt together
and knead until a dough is formed. Make it into the
shape of a roll and slice into 12 equal pieces; press
each piece, cover with a wet cloth and allow to stand
for half an hour. After half an hour roll the pieces
in flour, place them on top of one another, press with
the hand, sprinkle flour and roll out one by one but
not too thinly. Sprinkle a pinch of corn starch over
each piece, place again on top of another, and roll
them out again by pressing on the edges of the rolling
pin. One by one roll out once more, sprinkle a pinch
of corn starch in between them, place on top of one
another, and roll them out making one layer of dough
larger than the other. One layer of dough must be
rolled out twice the size of the baking tray on which
it will be cooked. Blend 3 glasses milk and 1 glass
melted margarine in a bowl, add 4 eggs, cheese,
chooped parsley and salt, then continue blending.
Grease the baking tray, line the larger layer of dough
with it so that it will overlap the size of the tray,
then evenly spread over the filling. Put 16 glasses of
water into a pan, add 8 tablespoons of salt and bring
to boil. Put each piece of the dough into the pan one
by one, hold it for one minute then take it out and
put into another bowl filled with cold water and press
with your hands so that the water drains out. Place on
a baking tray. First place one layer of pastry, then
the filling, repeat this until all the pastry is used
and close the edges with the overlapping piece. Bake
in a moderately hot oven for an hour. Remove from the
oven, cut into slices and serve.
Ingredients:
- 500 gr. yufka (thin sheets of unleavened bread
dough)
- 1/2 glass milk
- 6 table spoons margarine < Sauce:
- 1 1/2 tablespoons margarine
- 5 table spoons flour
- 3 eggs
- 300 gr. white cheese
- 1/2 bunch parsley
- 1/4 glass milk
- salt
Saute the margarine and flour for two minutes in a
saucepan. Add 1/4 glass hot milk and 1/4 tablespoon
salt and stir until mixture becomes quite thick.
Remove from the stove and allow to cool. Put 200 gr.
cheese into another bowl, mash with a fork, add
chopped parsley and blend the cheese with the eggs.
Add to this mixture the white sauce you have prepared,
mix them all together. Put milk and margarine into
another bowl, blend until smooth, allow to stand. Roll
out one sheet of the yufka to 1.5 times larger than
the size of the tray on which it will cook. The other
layer should be about the size of the tray. Line the
tray first with the larger piece of pastry so that it
overlaps the edges of the greased baking tray. Spread
the prepared milk and margarine mixture over evenly.
Repeat for a few layers until half the pastry sheets
are used, then spread the cheesey mixture over, layer
with the remaining pastry, and margarine and milk
mixture as before. Brush the top with the remaining
milk and margarine mixture, bake in moderately hot
oven for an hour and serve.
Sauce: Mash white cheese in a bowl. Add
melted margarine, flour, eggs, milk, parsley and salt
to taste. Blend to have homogenious mixture.
Ingredients: 610 cal (6 servings)
- 3 yufkas
- 1 glass oil(for frying)
- 1 egg
- 1/2 bunch chopped parsley
- 250 gr. white cheese
Wash the cheese. mash it well with a fork and add
the choped parsley. After adding the egg white, the
filling of the pastry will be ready. Put the pastries
on top of one another, cut into two in the middle and
put again on top of one another . Cut the pastries
again into two so that now each layer of pastry is
divided into 4 pieces. Cut each piece into two so that
you get 8 triangles from each layer. Take each piece
seperately, put the filling near to the wider edge of
each piece, fold both ends across and roll up like a
cigarette. Brush some water on the narrow end and
press the edges together to seal. Heat the oil in a
frying pan, put the pastries in and fry until they
become golden. Drain off the oil and serve warm.
Ingredients:
- 3 ready-made yufkas (thin sheets of unleavened
bread dough)
- 1 glass sunflower oil
- 150 gr. ground meat

After sauteeing the margarine and chopped onions in
a saucepan, add the ground meat, and salt to taste,
continue to saute. Stir with a spoon occasionally.
Remove the pan from the heat, season with black pepper
and parsley. Place the pastries on top of one another
and cut them into pieces that have a width of 8 cm.
and a length of approximatel 24 cm. Put approximately
half a tablespoon of the prepared filling at one end
of each yufka, then roll the yufka over into the shape
of a triangle. Seal the edges of yufka together either
with water or egg white. Repeat this for each piece,
then dip into a dish of cold water, then put them into
a frying pan containing heated sunflower oil. Fry both
sides until brown, drain off the oil and serve.

is formed. Cover with a wet cloth and allow to stand
for an hour. After an hour, place the dough onto a
lightly floured surface, sprinkle flour over the dough
around the rolling pin and start rolling evenly again
until it becomes a thin layer. Add sliced onions, 2
teaspoons black pepper and a pinch of salt to the
ground meat, knead for 2 minutes, do not cook. Cut the
pastry into squares of 4-5 cm. width. Spread some of
the prepared filling onto each square, cover by
bringing together the 4 edges and sealing together.
Pour the broth into saucepan, allow it to boil, add
the prepared and filled pastries. Cook on a moderately
