These crunchy hand-pies are called Börek and originate from Turkey, but we first tried them at our favorite cornershop and have been addicted ever since. Crunchy on the outside with burnt edges and gooey, cheesy and stuffed with chard towards the centre. Needless to say, they are insanely delicious and we are so happy to finally share the recipe, along with a shockingly simple hack how to make a gluten free version.
