I grew up next to Bosnian neighbors who used to cook this every now and then. I have very fond memories of it growing up because it tasted amazing and the people who made it were extremely kind. I have searched for this recipe for quite a long time. Your video was excellent and I can't wait to try out making Burek for myself. Thank you so much for posting and hvala vam za pomoc!
I have seen hundreds of burek recipes in English and I have not found one as great and descriptive as this one! Thank you so much! Everything is so detailed, the table cloth, the soda water, wow!!!! This is great! Thank you!
Bravooooooo. We make burek and I can tell you one secret, add just a pinch tiny pinch of honey to meat and onion. It will make everything different . You made amazing burek and trust me lot of girls can not make it these days. I hope you love it and you will try other balkan recipes.
It's good to see you making burek. My cousin is married to a Bosnian. She can make burek, zaljanica, the one with potato and cheese - to name a few! When her in-laws come to Australia (where I'm from), they are blown away! Thank you very much for sharing this!
You have given us a great description of how our mother, aunts and grandmother made this dish. I had seen it a few times but didn’t know the subtleties. All in your calm and knowing voice. A great way to learn. Thank you so much
I tried many recepies for burek from my bosian friends and hands down this is the best recepie of them all that yealds the best tasting and looking burek! Thank you so much Nimzy!
wow this actually looks really authentic, just the way I saw it being made is that the dough looked thicker (more rolls or something ) and they'd usually pour some melted butter over it at the end ....
Fantastic job! Just like my mom makes. My gf, future wife, will use this video and try to make it this weekend. My mom sent us this video to use until we can come visit in person
Wow, Respect !!! Original !! Grandmother's Burek, I'm impressed !!! please remember Burek is only said if it is done with meat !! cheese=sirniza , potatoes=krompirusa, spinach=zeljanica ,
Thank you so much! Yes you're absolutely right. I simplified it by letting people know they can add whatever filling they like but technically the name of the pie would change. 🙃👍🏾
How you learned Bosnian burek. Good job👍👏 Also, I am not Bosnia and I know how to make it not just burek. Also, their other stuffed vegetables with rice and minced meet. The other type of pita with spinach
Thanks for this excellent video. So many people tried to show me but whenever I turn my head or go to grab something I feel like I may have missed a couple of steps cuz it never comes out very good.. 😂 you make it look so easy. I always wondered why my mother-n-law kept greasing up my tablecloths. I never thought they looked clean so I kept throwing them out.. I didn’t know about the fabric softener. Another concern with the table cloth is my fear of hair/fuzz that may get stuck to the dough. I can’t wait to try it this way. Today I made burek that looks.like a pie but when it was done, it looked like a very large Jamaican beef patty.
Aww thank you so much! I'm happy you're learning Bosnian food and I hope you are successful using this method. Definitely feel free to post any questions here when you try it. 😊
At the very end, you need to pour melted butter over the burek, and then cover the pan with a cloth for ten minutes! Then it will be perfect and authentic, and the taste will be much better!
Good job I hope I can make this. I al Bosnian and I never made one before. Your video is amazing to help me learn. Grew up eating alot of potatoes Pita it’s my favorite food.
Ti nisi pola engleskinja, pola Bosanka, ako su ti oba roditelja Bosanci... ti si 100% BOSANKA, koja je rodjena u Americi ali nikad nećeš i ne možeš biti pola pola.
It looks like you have done this soooo many times. Looks delicious. I went to Bosnia last summer and had time for only one Burek place in Sarajevo, which unfortunately wasn't the best, had better here in Belgium from immigrants. Gonna try this recipe soon, but I'll first need a table cloth :)
This recipe is absolutely, 100% traditional. I saw Bosnian women in Croatia make it exactly the same way. What I cant figure out is...how in the heck did someone who (I assume) is American learn to do this?
Nimzy Unmeasured I’m learning with your video instead of with my mom 😂 I tried to make one the other day but had a lot of trouble stretching out the dough... ended up being a bit too thick lol.. will keep trying!
@@Timur21 haha nice! Add water little by little until it's like a pizza dough consistency. Knead the dough very well to build the gluten. Its better to be more wet than dry if you're unsure but it shouldn't be too sticky. Also let the dough rest and use the oil after rolling it out to help stretch the dough.
Lijepo ali u meso ide puno crvenog luka 4-5glavica i bijelog jedna glavica. Jufka se isto moze namastit uljem preklopiti i da Ostoji 5minuta. Burek se može jesti sa jogurtom
Yes you can freeze. It's easier if you make mini ones (pita) and freeze them individually. Wrap well and when you're ready to bake place it in the oven frozen, no need to defrost. You can add the soda water halfway through baking.
@shahnilakhalid8235 if you make them into pitas then yes. If it is the burek as shown, it will probably need to bake an extra 10-15 mins. Check and see. I have never frozen mine but they sell them frozen so I know it can be done.
She sounds American. Where in the world did she learn how to cook such an amazing and traditional dish? Especially making her own phyllo??? Amazing!!! Very clear and calm instructions too!!
Lol not as uncommon as you may think. She learned from her mother in law just like I did. I’m also a black American woman married to a Bosnian man. I also know of many other American women that have learned Bosnian recipes from their in laws.

MashaAllah
That looks amazing! Are you married to a Bosnian?
Sis I’m having an issue with getting that golden color. Any tips ?
Salam. Did you use soda water on top? You can also brush on butter the last 10 mins of baking.
I am Bosnian and I can tell you that you are a master :) burek is for 10 +
Thank you 🥰

This is not burek its maznik or some call it pita.Absolutely beautiful!
Thank you! Depending on where you're from it's called something different. Are you Macedonian?
Realiy good job .
Respect .
Thank you so much!
@@nimzyunmeasured9569
What mean Unmeasured ?
@@2222-k2i my recipes are usually not measured and my nickname is Nimzy.
You guys have to try ‘CEVAPI you them with a bread cooked in oil and you eat it with onions there the best
Yes! One of my favorites. The house loves when I make it with fresh lepinja
Amazing!!!

Svi bureci su dobri a kralj buteka je drobanac ali koga zna napraviti nije za svakog da to pravi
Wow very cool! Where did you learn how to make this? Looks like you learned from an authentic source!
Thank you! My ex mother in law taught me how to make pita. Just took a step further 😊

Lijepo ali u meso ide puno crvenog luka 4-5glavica i bijelog jedna glavica. Jufka se isto moze namastit uljem preklopiti i da Ostoji 5minuta. Burek se može jesti sa jogurtom
You could also put little bit of garlic
Yes totally! Everyone has their special touch 🙂
@@nimzyunmeasured9569 and you are real expert for jufka 😉
That looks so good! What is the purpose for pouring the soda water? Also was it crunchy in the end?
Thank you. The soda water helps to give the dough a nice color and creates a steam so that it cooks thru. Yes there is a crunch to it 🙂
Класс !
Love it. Is it possible to make it in advance and freeze it and when needed take out and bake it
Yes you can freeze. It's easier if you make mini ones (pita) and freeze them individually. Wrap well and when you're ready to bake place it in the oven frozen, no need to defrost. You can add the soda water halfway through baking.
@@nimzyunmeasured9569 thanks in a million
Will the temperature and baking time remain the same?
@shahnilakhalid8235 if you make them into pitas then yes. If it is the burek as shown, it will probably need to bake an extra 10-15 mins. Check and see. I have never frozen mine but they sell them frozen so I know it can be done.
@@nimzyunmeasured9569 okie dokie. Really appreciate your quick response
Bureka ima vise vrsta najteze je napraviti sterani burek to prave iskusne domacice a najbolje ga zaliti da iskuhanim govedzim kostima

@@mariahchanel130 Yes or friends. I'm Lebanese American and love Bosnian food. Many of my friends are Bosnian as my small city has a large population.
Bravoooooooooooo👍💪👑👏👏👏👏
Hvala 😊
Yummy 😋
Perfekt😛
She is doing it right how I know is because she is making her own dough not store bought crap
What is the dimensions of your table... curious. 4 x 6?
2ft 7in× 3ft 10in
Whats the oven temperature? And how long do you leave it in in total?
375F for 25-35 mins. You will have to check it based on the thickness of your yufka. When it's evenly brown it should be ready
Good job lady smell on Burek
Nije burek nego mesnica!
Does the oil make it stretch easier or is it to make the layers flakier?
Both. Adding butter or ghee after stretching the dough helps create flaky layers
@@nimzyunmeasured9569 Thank you so much for this no measurements recipe. Just made it, and it was so fun and delicious!
@@kathrynodonnell1636 aww I'm overjoyed that you tried making it! Thank you for sharing that with me😊
