Cheese Bourekas

Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 teaspoon dried parsley
• 1 pinch garlic powder
• 1 pinch onion powder
• 1 pinch salt
• 1 pinch black pepper
• 1 (17 1/2 ounce) package frozen puff pastry
• 2 teaspoons water
• 2 tablespoons sesame seeds

Directions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.

2. 2

   Beat 1 egg in a medium bowl, and mix in the cheese. Season with parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.

3. 3

   On a lightly floured surface, cut each sheet of puff pastry into 6 equal squares to give 12 squares in total. Beat the remaining egg with water in small bowl. Brush edges of each square lightly with egg wash. Place a heaping tablespoon of the cheese mixture in the center of each square. Fold pastry over the filling, (make a triangle shape for an authentic look) and seal edges with a fork. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet, brush with remaining egg wash and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

4. 4

   Bake in the preheated oven 30 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve immediately.
