9 min09:00 - 2
Divide the dough into 6 balls, oil the tops, and rest for 1 hour.
1 hr60:00 - 3
Melt the butter and mix it with the vegetable oil to make the layering fat.
- 4
Stretch each dough ball on an oiled counter until it is thin like a membrane.
- 5
Brush the dough with fat and fold it like an envelope, then stack the balls and shape into a round.
- 6
Bake the feteer at 210°C for 21 minutes until puffed and browned.
21 min21:00 - 7
Serve hot with honey and strained yogurt.
