I Make This Almost EVERY WEEK! 😍 Turkish Borek In 15 Minutes & TWO EASY WAYS

phyllo dough

🥗Healthier: whole wheat pastry dough

💰Cheaper: homemade dough

Whole wheat adds fiber, while homemade can reduce cost.

ground meat

🥗Healthier: chopped mushrooms

💰Cheaper: lentils

Mushrooms provide umami flavor, and lentils are budget-friendly.

feta cheese

🥗Healthier: cottage cheese

💰Cheaper: ricotta cheese

Cottage cheese lowers fat content, while ricotta is often less expensive.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: vegetable oil

Avocado oil has a high smoke point, while vegetable oil is often cheaper.

Prepare a medium-sized nonstick pan (20-22 cm).

Crumble feta cheese and mix with kashar cheese and chopped parsley.

In a bowl, whisk together 1 egg, 1/3 cup milk, and 1/3 cup vegetable oil.

Add a pinch of salt to the sauce if desired.

Layer smaller phyllo sheets in the pan, hanging over the sides.

Fill halfway with the cheese mixture, then cover with more phyllo sheets, soaking them in the sauce.

Cook on the stovetop for about five minutes, turning to cook both sides until crunchy and golden.
