👨‍🍳 Οδηγίες

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

   Prepare the filling: Mash the boiled potatoes in a bowl until smooth. Set aside.

   💡 Επαγγελματικές Συμβουλές: Ensure potatoes are completely dry before mashing.
3. 3

   In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

   Unroll the puff pastry sheets onto a lightly floured surface. Cut each sheet into 6 equal squares (or desired shape).

7. 7

   Place a generous tablespoon of the potato-spinach filling onto one half of each pastry square. Fold the other half over to create a triangle or rectangle, and crimp the edges with a fork to seal.

   💡 Επαγγελματικές Συμβουλές: Don't overfill, or the bourekas may burst.

   Arrange the bourekas on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with the beaten egg wash and sprinkle with sesame seeds, if using.
