Knead a soft dough with the flour, cold water, 1 tablespoon yogurt, 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, and half the salt.
Divide the dough into two balls and rest for 20 minutes.
Finely chop the spinach and mix with white cheese, black pepper, and remaining salt.
Roll the first dough ball to tray size, brush with some vegetable oil, fold, and roll again.
Lay the dough in an oiled tray and spread the spinach filling over it.
Roll the second dough ball the same way, cover the filling, and press the edges.
Brush the top with the remaining yogurt and vegetable oil.
Bake the borek at 200°C for 30 to 35 minutes, until top and bottom are browned.
💡 Tip: Oiling and folding the dough helps both sides stay crisp and layered while baking.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Slice hot and serve with ayran and seasonal tomatoes.
