directions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and oil a 16 inch round baking pan -- if this is not available use a 9X13 baking pan.
  • Combine cheeses, onions, parsley, and one egg. Mix until this is smooth.
  • Spread out a sheet of phyllo dough.
  • Brush with olive oil. Top with another.
  • On top the this spread some of the cheese mixture. Roll this up from the long side.
  • In the baking pan coil the phyllo roll.
  • Repeat the steps with the phyllo dough and cheese. Coil each roll around the central roll. You will be making one large spiral.
  • Beat the remaining two eggs and pour this over the phyllo rolls. Pour the bottle of mineral water over this and put in the oven immediately.
  • Bake for about 30 minutes, or until the top is dry, crisp, and golden brown.

  1. Hi, this isn't a Su Boregi, Su Boregi translates to Water Borek, the pastry should be moist on the inside and crispy on the outside, the pastry is sometimes boiled when assembling or is spread with a milk/egg mixture between layers. I've had Su Boregi quite a few times for breakfast<br/>when I've visited Turkey.
