Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

flour
1 1/2 cups water, cold
1 tablespoon oil
1 tablespoon vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
to taste butter, melted
2 cups dock or 2 cups sorrel, cut thin
to taste salt
1/2-1 cup yogurt or 1/2-1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
2 -3 eggs
to taste butter, melted

Steps:

  • Prepare the dough with flour, 1 and a half cups of cold water, 1 spoon of oil, 1 spoon of vinegar and half a teaspoon of salt, so that the dough may obtain average solidity.
  • Press and mix the dough well, then divide in two equally sized pieces. Then divide the pieces into 10-12 ball shaped pieces.
  • Spread the balls in well-shaped circles of the size of a plate. Place the circle-shaped dough on top of one another so as to obtain two large pies.
  • Cover each pie with melted butter and leave for about half an hour to 1 hour.
  • During this time wash a bowl of spinach, dock or sorrel, cut thin, add salt and leave in salt for about 15-20 minutes, then squash.
  • Mix the spinach, dock or sorrel with half to 1 cup yogurt and 2-3 eggs.
  • You can replace the yogurt with crumbled feta cheese. Cover the baking pan with melted butter.
  • Spread one of the dough pies to cover the entire pan and gently pull up the ends, then sprinkle melted butter on it and spread the spinach on it uniformly.
  • Spread the second dough pie on top of the spinach.
  • Cut the byrek in square slices, sprinkle with melted butter and place in a hot oven until cooked.
  • Byrek is served hot accompanied with yogurt.

I found this byrek to be a bit too greasy. I think I'll try baking it next time instead of frying it.
