Borek, a culinary gem from Turkish cuisine, has a rich history that traces its roots back to the heart of Middle Asia. Traditionally, it was crafted with ingredients like meat, potatoes, and cheese, but lately, it has seen a delightful transformation with the inclusion of vegetables. I recommend experimenting with ingredients like mushrooms, spinach, zucchini, and eggplant to create your perfect vegetarian version.

The love for borek extends well beyond Turkey, with its popularity stretching across the Balkans, Greece, and the Mediterranean region. This savory pastry is a cherished staple in many Mediterranean countries.
What exactly is traditional borek made of?
It starts with handmade phyllo pastry, at home. Of course, for convenience, you can use pre-made phyllo dough, brush it with butter, and fill it with your choice of vegetables. The result? A perfect and satisfying vegetarian dinner recipe.
Prepare the stuff. The leek is gonna give onion taste so if you don’t like sweet taste add salt.
