Ingredients:
500 gr pumpkin pureeSmall sugar/pie pumpkins provide the most flavorful additions to any baked dish or baked good and are great as a soup. These are more tender and less stringy than the larger variety. Sugar pumpkins also have firm, sweet flesh compared to their big ones. Heat the olive oil, and sauté the onions and garlic until softened.
Halve the pumpkin, de-seed, place halves face down in a big pan with approx 2-3 water glass of water but I prefer using homemade beef broth instead of water and added 1 water glass of milk. Finally add black pepper. Cook over low heat until all the ingredients are softened. Scrape out the pumpkin “meat” and then mash or puree as needed with mixer.
6 fresh yufka sheets
350 gr feta cheese, crumbled
1 egg
Salt and black pepper to taste
½ glass olive oil
1 glass milk
1 teaspoon black sesame

1 glass milk1/4 glass olive oil
1 egg
Mix the olive oil, milk and egg in a bowl.
Instructions

Fold over the pastry from each side to seal in the mixture and then roll up like a cigar.
Wet the end of each pastry roll with water to seal. Grease the tray with a little olive oil. Brush the pastries with olive oil and egg mixture.
