Meat Burek

Ingredients

Phyllo Dough - 17.6 oz
Fatty Beef - 10.6 oz
Onion - 2 heads
Lamb - 10.6 oz
Garlic - 6 cloves
Olive Oil - 1 fl oz
Ghee - 3.5 oz
Black Cumin (Cumin) - 1 tablespoon
Salt - to taste
White Pepper (whole) - to taste

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Grind the beef and lamb into minced meat using a knife or a food processor.

Step 2

In olive oil, sauté finely chopped onion and garlic until soft, being careful not to let them brown. Add cumin seeds, let the vegetables cool slightly, then mix them with the ground meat, seasoning with salt and pepper.

Step 3

Cut the phyllo dough into long strips about 7 cm wide and brush with melted butter. At the beginning of each strip, place a small amount of filling and cover it with a triangle of dough, as if making a paper airplane — continue this way until the end of the strip, ensuring the meat is wrapped in several layers of dough.
