About Burek meat
Burek Meat is a savory pastry originating from the Balkans, with deep cultural ties to Bosnian, Serbian, and Croatian cuisines. This traditional dish consists of delicate, thin layers of phyllo dough filled with seasoned ground beef, onions, and spices, then baked to golden perfection. Rich in protein from the meat, Burek can be a hearty, satisfying meal. However, its high calorie count comes from the butter or oil used in the dough and the generous filling, making it an indulgence best enjoyed in moderation. While phyllo dough is low in fat compared to other pastries, Burek’s overall fat content can be significant. For a lighter option, pairing it with fresh vegetables or a zesty salad can balance its richness.
