About Borek with spinach and feta

Borek with Spinach and Feta is a savory pastry originating from Turkish and Middle Eastern cuisine, celebrated for its flaky layers and delicious filling. Traditionally made with thin sheets of phyllo dough, it is stuffed with a vibrant mixture of fresh spinach and creamy feta cheese, often seasoned with onion, garlic, and spices. The dish is baked to golden perfection, resulting in a crisp, buttery exterior with a rich, savory center. Nutritionally, the spinach provides a good source of vitamins A, C, and K, as well as iron and fiber, while the feta contributes calcium and protein. However, the phyllo dough and added fats can make it calorie-dense, and its sodium content may be high due to the feta and seasoning. Borek is best enjoyed in moderation, paired with a fresh salad or lighter sides to balance its richness.
