SPINACH AND FETA BOREK
In Turkey, savory pastries like these are made with hand-rolled yufka sheets, but store-bought phyllo dough makes a fine substitute. Often shaped into bite-size parcels, this large version may be cut into wedges. Serve it with a salad of sliced cucumber and radishes, and a bowl of olives, if desired.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Make the filling: In a large bowl, combine spinach, parsley, dill, scallions, oregano and eggs and stir to incorporate. Season with salt and pepper, then add Maras pepper, feta and Manchego, and stir well.
- Brush a 10-inch pie plate or skillet with lightly with olive oil. (You can also use a 9-by-13-inch pan for a rectangular pie.) Line with 1 sheet of phyllo, letting the excess fall over the sides of the pan. Brush phyllo lightly with olive oil, then follow with 2 more sheets, brushing each with oil.
- Pour the filling into the phyllo-lined pan, spreading it to the edges with the back of a spoon. Top with 3 more sheets of phyllo, brushing each sheet with olive oil before adding the next.
- Fold the ends of the phyllo back over the top and toward the center of the borek, and brush with oil. With the palm of your hand, press down on top layer to make the pie compact. (Alternatively, roll the excess toward the center to form a rim.)
- Bake for 30 minutes, until golden. Let rest for a few minutes before cutting into wedges. The borek is also good served at room temperature.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 8. Mix the flour, cornmeal and ½ tsp salt in a large bowl, add the butter and rub everything together with your fingertips to create a fine, breadcrumb-like mixture. (Alternatively, do this by pulsing everything together in a food processor.) Stir through the spring onions, feta, parmesan and chilli flakes, then add 220ml of the milk and briskly stir with a cutlery knife to distribute - if it feels a little dry, add the remaining milk. Bring together and lightly knead just so the mixture comes together.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment. Form the dough into a 25cm round about 2cm thick and lay on the baking sheet. Starting from the centre, cut the scones out into eight triangles, then pull each one around 1cm away from the next. Brush the tops with the beaten egg. Put in the oven and bake for 20-25 mins until golden brown. Leave to cool for 15 mins.
- Beat together the butter, chipotle paste and a pinch of salt. Cut open the warm scones and spread with the butter. The butter will keep, covered, for three days in the fridge and the scones for two days in an airtight container.

TURKISH SPINACH & FETA BOREK
This is a wonderful recipe for borek made in a large dish rather than the individual little rolls. It is great served in squares as a side dish or you can even make a meal out of it with a nice salad, some olives & fresh bread! Borek of all kinds is very popular with everyone in Turkey but it is especially popular during Ramadan time. Time to make doesn't include the resting time in the fridge!

Steps:
- To make the filling: Fry the onion in the olive oil on a medium heat for a few minutes until a pale golden colour. Add the salt & pepper, followed by the spinache & cook for a further couple of minutes. Remove from the heat & stir in the feta then set aside to cool.
- In a bowl, whisk the eggs, olive oil & milk.
- Grease a 2L casserole dish. Place 2 sheets of the phyllo in the bottom of the casserole - the phyllo should cover the bottom & the sides of the casserole. Brush 2-3 tbsp of the eggy mix over the top of the phyllo.
- Take another 2 sheets of phyllo, this time folding them so that they cover the bottom of the casserole only & brush with the eggy mix.
- Spread the spinach & feta filling over the phyllo & level gently with the back of a spoon.
- Cover the filling with another 2 sheets of phyllo, remebering to brush with the eggy mix. Contine layering the phyllo until it is used up. When you have used the last 2 sheets of phyllo, brush with the eggy mix then gently pull up the bottom sheet of phyllo & place it over the top sheet.
- Use the rest of the eggy mix to cover the top of the borek - this is important to stop it from burning.
- Place in the fridge to set for 3 hours then cook in a preheated oven at 1750c / 350f. Bake in the middle of the oven until it is golden brown.
