How delicious! I’ll have to prepare it somehow, the recipe doesn’t seem to be difficult to prepare. Can you clarify what kind of yogurt is needed? Or will anyone do?

Gorgeous churek! I made it with phyllo dough. Delicious!!! Only here there is a lot of impregnation for the package of dough, according to the recipe. Maybe this amount will work when making it from pita bread?

Foster, thanks again! I’ll try to fill the cake with the remaining impregnation. I’ll compare, since I have something to compare with.
