About Cheese boureka
Cheese Boureka is a savory pastry originating from Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisine, particularly popular in Turkey and Israel. These flaky turnovers are typically made with thin layers of phyllo dough and filled with a creamy cheese mixture, often incorporating feta, ricotta, or farmer's cheese. Some recipes may add egg or herbs like parsley for extra richness and flavor. Bourekas are traditionally baked until golden and crisp, offering a satisfying combination of crunch and creamy filling. While Cheese Bourekas are a delicious indulgence, they are not considered a health food. Phyllo dough, though low in fat, is often brushed with butter or oil, increasing caloric content. The cheese filling is rich in protein but can be high in saturated fat and sodium. Moderation is key when enjoying these pastries, and pairing them with fresh vegetables can create a more balanced meal option.
