Burek with meat

The round burek was first prepared in Nis in 1498 by the Turkish baker Mehmed Oglu. Today, this shape is called Serbian burek, unlike the spirally twisted one, which is called burek. Both forms are baked in a round pan. The classic dough fillings are meat and cheese (a round shape called an empty burek is also extremely popular). The best burek is made by masters-buregdžije Macedonians. If another filling is used (for example: mushrooms, apples), then it is called pie / strudel with mushrooms or apples. Gibanica with cheese is a special type of pie and is not similar to burek. The recipe of Serbian burek with meat, which is made, in the household, from ready-made crusts, was presented.

Preparation steps

  • Fry finely chopped, salted onion in a homemade notch for three to four minutes. Add minced mixed meat (pork and beef, in a ratio of 1: 1), ground black pepper and fry just enough to whiten the meat. Remove the pan from the heat.
  • Mix water, oil and salt in an enamel pot. This liquid is used to spray rows of complex crusts. During this time, preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius.
  • Coat the pan with notch and arrange three crusts with occasional spraying with water-oil-salt liquid. Place a layer of meat filling. Put a layer of three crumpled crusts on it and spray with liquid. This is followed by a layer of hope and three crumpled crusts. Work like this as long as there is hope and crust. Spread the whole crust on top of the folded burek, moisten it with liquid, and push the ends of the crust around nicely. Prick the finished burek three times with a fork and place the pan in a preheated oven. After ten minutes of baking, lower the temperature to 170 degrees Celsius and bake for about 40 minutes. Remove the baked burek from the oven, sprinkle with cold water and cover with a clean linen cloth. Allow the burek to cool slightly.

Serving

A warm burek with meat is cut into beautiful pieces and served on heated ceramic plates. Yogurt or beer is drunk, and sour milk is eaten with a spoon. Since it is best to eat burek with your fingers, guests should be provided with an appropriate amount of paper napkins.

The recipe comes from Turkish cuisine, and the dish is so fine that we dare to predict: it will win you over. If you get ready-made sheets of dough for the strudel, you will significantly shorten the preparation process. So, there is no obstacle to enjoying eating.
