I have made these so many times over the years; it is one of my favorite recipes. The beureks are yeast dough pastries with a tangy cheese and parsley filling. You glaze the beureks with egg before baking, so they come out shiny and so flavorful.
They are a little bit of work but, once you have made them a couple of times, you may be able to whip out a batch in a flash.
I have made them the size called for in the recipe (which makes 8), and I have also often made them 1/8 that size and made 64 from one batch. That size makes the most wonderful appetizer.
I serve the beureks with a simple homemade marinara sauce, often with some red wine it in. So delicious.
