Measure the ingredients into separate bowls and organize the counter so nothing needs to be searched for during the hot steps.
Mix the chard and cheese for 1 minute so the leaves are evenly distributed.
Fold the yufka like an envelope so the cheese does not leak into the pan.
Cook the borek in the pan for 10 minutes.
Check the final texture and plate it; hot serving preserves the texture.
💡 Tip: Squeezing the chard before using it keeps the borek base dry.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve the borek hot with tea and tomato slices.
