FAUX WATER BOREK (Yalancı Su Böreği)

Ingredients:

• 4 yufka (or filo sheets)
• 300 g white cheese (or feta)
• Parsley, half pack (20 g)
• 1 egg yolk
• 120 mL oil
• 600 mL boiling water

Preparation:

• Preheat the oven to 200°C (gas mark 6). 

• Glace the tray with oil
• Lay out one yufka in a disorganized way, forming wrinkles.
• Glace the yufka in the tray with oil by the help of a brush.
• Lay out second yufka.
• Again glace with oil, all around.
• In a bowl, mix chopped parsley with cheese, and smash with the help of a fork, forming crumbles of parsley and cheese, And pour all of it onto the second layer of yufka.
• Lay out the third layer, and glace with oil.
• Finally, cover all with the forth layer of yufka.
• Add the egg yolk into the remaining oil, whisk together, pour all on top of the yufka layers.
• Cook in the oven for 20 minutes.
• Take the tray out of the oven, pour the boiling water all over the borek.
• Cook for a further 25 minutes.
• Enjoy!

ps. Here, I used filo pastry sheets instead of yufka. Filo sheets are smaller in size than a usual yufka, so instead of 4 yufka, I used 6 filo sheets; like 3 sheets, cheese-parsley, and again three sheets.
