Flaky Layered Cheese Pastry
Ingredients
- 1 cup warm water (200 ml)
- 1 teacup yogurt (100 ml)
- 1 teacup vegetable oil (100 ml)
- 10 g instant yeast or dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 eggs
- 5 cups flour (add gradually)
For dough greasing
- 100 g butter
For filling
- 200 g kasar cheese
Preparation
Knead a soft, non-sticky dough, then without waiting, divide into 4 equal parts, shape into balls, cover, and let rest for 10 minutes.
Roll out each ball to 40-45 cm in diameter, stack them on top of each other, and grease each layer well with butter.
Cut the stack into 1-inch wide strips and roll each strip into a log shape.
Place the logs on a suitable tray, cover, and refrigerate for 10-15 minutes.
Roll out each log to the size of a tea saucer, add kasar cheese, fold it, and arrange on the baking tray.
Cover and let rise for 20-30 minutes.
Brush with egg yolk, then bake in a preheated oven at 180°C until golden and cooked through.
