Instructions
- 1
Knead a medium-firm dough with the wheat flour, eggs, water, half the salt, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
- 2
Divide the dough into 8 balls, cover, and rest for 20 minutes so the yufka does not tear while rolling.
20 min20:00 - 3
Finely chop the spinach, chard, parsley, and scallions, then mix with the cokelek cheese, black pepper, and remaining salt.
- 4
Roll the dough balls out thinly to the size of the tray and lay 4 yufka sheets on the bottom, lightly oiling each layer with olive oil.
- 5
Spread the herb and cokelek filling, then close with the remaining yufka sheets, oiling between the layers.
- 6
Brush the top of the borek with the remaining olive oil, mark slice lines, and bake at 185°C for 38-40 minutes.

💡 Tip: Do not wilt the herbs in a pan; using them only squeezed dry keeps the filling green and fresh.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Cut Milas boregi into squares and place it on an Aegean breakfast table with optional strained yogurt and tomato salad.
