INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat the oven to 180Ã¸C/350Ã¸F/Gas Mark 4.  If you are using cooked
chicken, just cut it into peanut-sized  pieces. If you are using
chicken fillets, first simmer them in hot  water for 6-8 minutes and
then take them out and chop them roughly to  the same size.  Melt the
butter, add the flour and stir over a low heat until well  mixed into a
roux.  Withdraw the pan from the heat and add the hot milk and chicken
stock  gradually, stirring. Return the pan to a gentle heat and whisk
the  sauce for 5-6 minutes until it boils and thickens.  Add the cheese
and seasonings and mix well.  Remove pan from the heat and add the
beaten egg slowly, stirring, and  then the chicken pieces. It should be
fairly thick in order to be used  successfully in the borek.  Next, cut
the whole stack of filo pastry into four long strips, about  8cm
(3inches) wide.  Brush each sheet with melted butter. Place a teaspoon
of filling in  one corner of each strip then fold over several times,
making little  triangles, and enclosing the filling.  Place these on an
oiled baking sheet, with the pastry ends underneath.  Brush the tops
with melted butter and bake for 20 minutes or until  crisp and golden.
Alternative method using Puff Pastry: - This may be freshly made or
frozen. Use 450g (1lb) pastry and defrost if necessary. Cut pastry
into walnut size pieces.  Roll them out thinly in small circles of
about 10cm (4inches)  diameter, place a teaspoon of filling in the
centre, fold the pastry  over, moisten edges then press together,
making a semi-circular shape.  Brush the tops with beaten egg and bake
as before for about 20  minutes or until golden.  Converted by
