Add minced meat to the hot fat and stir.

Season the meat with fresh pepper and salt; cook until the meat is done.

Prepare a mixture of water and fat for lubrication; cook until it boils.

Lay out the phyllo sheets and pour 3 tablespoons of the water and fat mixture on every sheet.

On every third row of phyllo sheets, place 1/3 of the cooked meat mixture.

Once all the meat is added and the sheets are folded, take the last sheet and wrap the whole burek with it.

Pour 5-10 tablespoons of the oil and water mixture on top of the burek.

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown.

Once baked, turn the burek upside down, cut into quarters, and serve.
