*Yields: 4–6 servings | Prep time: 40 min | Bake time: 30 min*
### **1. The Ingredients**
**The Dough**
* 4 cups All-purpose flour
* 1 tsp Salt
* 1.5 cups Warm water
* 2 tbsp Olive oil
**The Filling**
* 1 lb Fresh spinach (chopped)
* 1 cup Feta cheese (crumbled)
* 1 Onion (finely diced)
* ½ tsp Black pepper
* ½ tsp Pul Biber (Aleppo pepper or red chili flakes)
**The Glaze**
* ½ cup Greek yogurt
* ½ cup Milk
* 1 Egg
* ¼ cup Melted butter or Olive oil
### **2. Instructions**
**Step 1: Prepare the Dough**
1. Mix flour and salt in a large bowl. Gradually add warm water and oil.
2. Knead for about 10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.
3. Divide into 8 equal balls, cover with a damp cloth, and let them rest for at least **30 minutes**. *Resting is the secret to getting that paper-thin stretch!*
**Step 2: Make the Savory Filling**
1. Sauté the onions in a pan until translucent.
2. Add the chopped spinach. Cook just until wilted, then drain any excess liquid thoroughly. Squeeze it out with your hands once cool to avoid soggy pastry.
3. Mix the spinach and onions with crumbled feta and spices. Set aside.
**Step 3: The Assembly**
1. Whisk the yogurt, milk, egg, and butter together in a small bowl.
2. Roll out a dough ball on a floured surface as thin as possible (nearly translucent).
3. Brush a thin layer of the yogurt glaze over the dough.
4. Sprinkle a line of the spinach mixture along the edge.
5. Roll the dough tightly into a long “log.”
6. Coil the log into a spiral or fold it into the horseshoe shapes seen in your photo.
**Step 4: The Bake**
1. Place the boreks on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
2. Brush the tops generously with the remaining yogurt glaze.
3. Bake at **190°C (375°F)** for 25–30 minutes, or until the tops are a deep golden brown and crispy.
### **Pro Tips for Success**
* **The “Windowpane” Test:** The dough should be thin enough that you can almost see through it without it tearing.
* **Serve Warm:** These are best enjoyed fresh with a glass of Turkish tea or a side of cold ayran (yogurt drink).
