Homemade baked phyllo börek is a Turkish savoury pastry made by layering thin yufka sheets with a filling and baking until golden. Recipes vary: cheese, leafy greens and minced meat are all common choices, and börek has many regional forms across Turkey and the wider Balkans.
The outside turns crisp while the layered interior stays tender. In Turkey it may be served warm or at room temperature for breakfast, alongside tea, or as part of a meal; elsewhere, it works well as a snack or a shareable savoury bake. A 100 g piece provides 9.5 g of protein. Pair it with a fresh salad or vegetables for a lighter-feeling meal, or choose a greens-based filling.
