Knead the flour, yogurt, water, and salt into an earlobe-soft dough.
Cover the dough and rest for 20 minutes.
Clean the anchovies without bones, chop finely, and leave in a strainer for 10 minutes.
Chop the onions, tomato, and parsley, and mix with the anchovies, egg, salt, and black pepper.
Divide the dough into small balls and roll into thin rounds.
Place anchovy filling on each piece and fold into a half-moon.
Fry the borek in 175°C oil for 5 minutes, until both sides are browned.
Transfer to paper towels and serve hot with lemon.
💡 Tip: Letting the anchovies drain for 10 minutes prevents the filling from watering down and opening the dough.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve hot with lemon wedges, arugula, and ayran.
