Zucchini Boerek

This is a recipe that some of you already tried! I decided to write one of my all-time favorites. Strangely, I am finding this hard to categorize, it is sort of a quiche, a gratin or a Turkish boerek. But it is simple to make and very delicious.

Ingredients:
1 medium-size zucchini
1 medium-size carrot
125 grams of feta cheese
7-8 sheets of phyllo dough
1 cup of carbonated water
3 eggs
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup vegetable oil
Fresh dill (chopped)
1 cup cheddar cheese
Butter

Grate the zucchini and the carrot in a big bowl. Break the phyllo dough sheets into small pieces with your hands. The pieces can be uneven, it does not matter. Then add the eggs, the feta cheese, the dill, the milk and the vegetable oil. You could also add some cheddar cheese if you like. Mix well with a spoon, cover with a lid or foil and let it sit in the fridge for an hour.

In the meantime butter the pyrex dish, preferably a large deep one, approximately 8''x12''. Transfer the mixture to the pyrex, and then pour the carbonated water on. When you do that you get a feeling that you ruined everything, no worries :) On top, place little pieces of butter, and then cover with grated cheddar cheese. Bake about 30 minutes, or until the top is golden, at 425F.

Once it is ready, let it cool down a little before you serve. Otherwise, just like lasagna, it loses its form once you transfer to the plates. Bon appetit!
