👨🍳 Ohjeet
- 1
Boil potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain well and mash them in a bowl.
⏱️ 20 minutes💡 Ammattilaisvinkit: Ensure potatoes are thoroughly drained to avoid a watery filling. - 2
While potatoes boil, sauté the finely chopped onion in olive oil over medium heat until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
⏱️ 7 minutes - 3
Add the sautéed onions to the mashed potatoes. Stir in crumbled feta cheese, chopped parsley, dill, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
💡 Ammattilaisvinkit: Taste the filling and adjust seasoning as needed. - 4
Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 5
Unfold the puff pastry sheets. Cut each sheet into 6 equal squares (or circles, if preferred).
💡 Ammattilaisvinkit: Work with puff pastry while it's cold for best results. - 6
Place about 2 tablespoons of the potato-feta filling onto one half of each pastry square. Fold the other half over to create a triangle or half-moon shape, and crimp the edges with a fork to seal.
💡 Ammattilaisvinkit: Don't overfill the pastries, or they will be difficult to seal. - 7
Arrange the bourekas on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with the beaten egg wash and sprinkle with sesame seeds, if using.
💡 Ammattilaisvinkit: Egg wash gives the bourekas a golden, glossy finish. - 8
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden brown and puffed up.
⏱️ 25 minutes💡 Ammattilaisvinkit: Keep an eye on them as puff pastry can brown quickly.
