i didn't know you can make a borek with chickpeas, great! love it, cheers from london
This sounds great...I don't have Turkish filo sold in my area (how large are they)?...can I substitute the long rectangular ones? If so, do I have to use more than one skin and if so do i have to lubricate it so it doesnt crack? What size would they be cut int? Can these be made ahead and frozen?
Thanks!!!
You can substitute long rectangular ones. Cut them into 4-5 pieces widthwise. One skin is enough. Yes, you can make them ahead of time and they could be frozen.
Thanks,

My rolls never absorbed all the liquid even after overnight in the fridge! Still tasty though. I'm having fun making some of your recipes; thank you for posting them.
Hi Jenny,I remembered that my rolls absorbed almost all the liquids. You can changed the amount of the liquid when you try it next time.
Thank you,

Thanks for all the recepies. I am a sports bettor and in between all my live betting and sports betting research I try to catch up on cooking ideas (so my wife will forgive me all the hours I spend working). You helped me out a ton!
