💡 Tip: Leaving the yufka sheets slightly wrinkled as you lay them down makes the borek look more layered and airy as it bakes. If the white cheese is salty, do not add extra salt to the filling.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve with hot tea or cold ayran, optionally sprinkled with sesame or nigella seeds.
