Boyus or Boyuz or Boyikus are spinach and cheese filled Sephardic pastry.  I have tried many recipes and I think at least three are archived on this blog in the recipe index.  Last week when I was researching and making strudel I had a thought.  Strudel dough is essentially like philo dough.  Nona says that her mother made her own philo dough for the boyus.  You see where I am going with this.  I made two batches of strudel dough and instead of butter for brushing the dough; I used olive oil for one trial and sunflower oil for the second trial.
Ingredients
  • subheading: Filling:
  • 1 plastic container prewashed baby spinach
  • 7 ounces Bulgarian Feta cheese, crumbled
  • 4 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, grated or shredded

  • 3 cups all purpose unbleached flour, plus ¼ quarter cup for kneading
  • 1/ 2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 4 tablespoons sunflower oil
