Beurek With Parsley Cheese Filling Recipes

Steps:

• Combine dough ingredients in bread machine according to manufacturers directions. Process on dough cycle.
• While dough is rising, combine the cheeses by mashing the cream cheese well with a fork or potato masher and mixing in the other cheeses.
• Stir in the rest of the filling ingredients.
• When dough is finished rising, divide it into 8 pieces.
• Roll the pices of dough into smooth balls, place them on a lightly floured board, and cover for 15 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Roll out each ball of dough into a circle about 7 inches in diameter.
• Place a generous 1/3 cup of cheese filling on the lower half of each circle.
• Moisten the lower edge of the dough with water. Fold the upper half down over the filling and press the edges together with a wet fork to seal.
• Arrange the beureks on a buttered baking sheet so that their edges do not overlap.
• Seal any holes by pinching the dough together.
• Beat the egg with a tablespoon of water and brush it on the pastries to give them a nice glaze. Sprinkle the beureks with sesame seeds or chopped chives, if you like.
• Bake the beureks for 15-20 minutes, until golden brown with slightly crisp edges.
• Serve hot.
