Ingredients
For the Dough:
2½ Cups All Purpose Flour
1 tbsp Dry Yeast
½ Cup Vegetable Oil
2 tbsp White Sugar
½ Cup warm Water
For the Filling:
½ Cup Olives – Pitted and halved
1½ Cup crumbled Feta Cheese
¾ Cup Whipping Cream (Heavy Cream)
¾ Cup Grated Cheese
½ tsp Dry Oregano
For the Topping:
1 Egg – beaten
Sesame Seeds
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350F (180C)
Mix the dough ingredients all together until they form a nice flexible dough. Set aside in a warm place and cover. Let the dough rest for about 30 minutes (it will not rise so don’t worry).
In a separate bowl, mix all filling ingredients.
After 30 minutes, flatten the dough using a dough roller into a square sized about 14 ½ Inch X 14 ½ Inch (36cm X 36cm).
Cut the dough into squares in the desired size. Normally toy will have 16-20 squares.
Place 1 tsp of filling on the center of each square and fold in two into a triangle.
Tighten the edges with your fingers to avoid the spilling and leaking of the filling while baking.
Place the ready triangles on a baking pan lined with parchment paper.
Brush each turnover with egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Place in the preheated oven for 35 minutes until light brown.
