- When yeast brooms transfer the mixture to a big mixing bowl..
- Add oil,yoghurt (normal temperature) and salt to the yeast mixture..
- Mix well with a fork and slowly add maida or all purpose flour..
- Add 1 cup maida at a time and mix until a very soft and sticky dough forms.I used 5 cups of flour total, you may have little less or more..
- Cover the dough and keep in a moderately hot place for 2 hours or until the dough becomes double in size..
- In the meantime for the stuffing take feta cheese,chopped parsley/coriander leaves, chilli flakes and olives in a bowl..
- Mix everything well and keep aside..
- When the dough becomes double in size take out in a flour dusted working surface of kitchen..
- Knead for few minutes and then make large lemon size balls. I made 12 balls out of the dough..
- Take 100gm butter in a saucepan with 1 tablespoon of olive oil..
- Heat them to melt and keep aside..
- Take a ball and roll it to make a thin round sheet/roti..
- Transfer to another place and spread some melted butter with a brush to the surface of the roti..
- Make another roti and spread over the 1st roti..
- Again spread some melted butter over the roti..
- Repeat the process for total 6 times to make 6 layers of roti with melted butter..
- With your hands press and spread the layered roti to make it thin..
- Also use a rolling pin to make the roti thin and big..
- Now cut the sheet/roti with a knife as shown in the picture..
- Take one portion, spread a little and stuff 1 tablespoon of prepared feta cheese mixture..
- Fold the sheet to make a parcel..
- Keep it in lined baking tray..
- Like this make other parcels as you like. There is no definite shape to make, make the parcels as you like..
- I also make them as shown in the picture..
- Keep all the parcels in the baking tray and brush with beaten egg yolks..
- Keep aside the tray again for 20 minutes and then bake them in a preheated oven at 200 degree C for 20 minutes or until they become golden brown..
