COOKING ALGERIA: Borek 🇩🇿


Cooking traditional borek (burek, bourek – lotsa ways to spell it) with homemade dioul (brick pastry) – a staple in Algerian cuisine during Ramadan. Eat with a bowl of soup!

  1. Well done. You succeeded in preparing it. It is good to see a foreigner trying to prepare our dishes. Algerian cuisine is diverse and unique. Thank you for defaming and highlighting our Algerian knowledge.

  2. Millions of algerians outside of Algeria did not manage to make Algerian cuisine known around the world. A Canadian bloke had to step in. Way to go. And algerians expats…..shame on you😂

  3. Hiya Jamie, I’m wondering if one of those rounded crepe pans, the one’s you invert to dip into the batter, would work here for the wrappers? Or, one of those gadgets the crepemakers use to spread their batter on a flat, round cooking surface? In a pinch do you think store- bought spring roll or egg roll wrappers would work? Perhaps too thick? I’m full of questions. Also, was the lack of vegetables in the roll of notice? I do love a meat & vegetable stuffed roll, and paired with that Algerian soup I’m thinking it would be muy bueno!

  4. I know Burek, from Kosovo. Individual filo pastry parcels, snuggled together and roasted. Either cheese based filling, or peppered lean beef mince filling. Golden brown on top. Very very tasty.

  5. I haven’t read the comments so I don’t know if it’s been said but if you buy a cast iron tawa, the pastry is way easier to make. To me and people who suggested it to me ☺️ looks amazing though ❤

  6. I feel like Filo dough would still work… It’s the same thing except it’s not cooked. It’s rolled out that thin and it looks like you’re frying it anyway at the end I’m assuming because I haven’t finished the video yet lol.

  7. respect to you for ur efforts brother. for the pastry u can use the chinese spring rolls sheets , they come in square shapes ,and they r great for this recipee,cause the thinner the pastry the crunchier it is when cooked. good luck and all the best.

  8. Less cheese, less parsley with no stem, only leaves added last minute to the filling, add few slices of fresh green olives …
    Crunchy "Dyoul" you can find not far from "Rouchar" market (Martyrs square), fresh and hand made …
    Try and let us know, you'll surprise yourself 😁

  9. I from Algeria and I never made Borek pastry hhhhh I usually buy it form market, so It's really great thank you so much for the promotion of my country food traditions ! Best wishes

  10. Omg ok this is so weird….. It’s like 1am, I’m eating my late dinner of frozen egg rolls that I cooked in the oven, and I had the thought, “I wonder if Julia Child has an egg roll recipe? I wonder if Jamie has ever done any egg roll type recipes?”…
    And so I’m sitting here, scrolling around for something, and this video comes up! The thumbnail had me like, OH SHIT!!! 😂
    I know this here isn’t actually an egg roll, but yeah, that was kind of cool😊

    P.S. Jamie’s food looks and probably tastes lightyears more delicious than mine 😅

  11. why do you present all these food that are originally turkish, without ever giving credit to the actual culture it comes from? do you know anything such as cultural sensitivity? you can find american pizza in usa but pizza originates from italy. and borek is from turkey but you can find it in countries that used to be a part of the ottoman empire, in a similar way. have some respect. you could have at least called it algerian style/version. your cooking around the food series includes multiple turkish food, attributed to other countries. the least you could do is to choose a dish that actually comes from the cuisine you want to introduce. imagine if you showed a hummus recipe and labelled it cooking turkiye. a war would break out in your comment section but this is so normalized, nothing happens here. educate yourself please.

  12. It makes my heart sing to see another food lover embracing the mistakes and relishing in those moments of success when trying a recipe wholly new to us . . . the multiple shots of that perfect dough finally coming off of the pan from different angles was just priceless

  13. We have many Algerians at my job here in California and they always talk Algerian food so this video helps out! Definitely wanna try to make this
