  • Albanian phyllo meat pie was one of my favorite dishes growing up in Albania. I try to make it occasionally for my kids now, they love the dish and they're fascinated with the process of stretching phyllo dough into thin phyllo layers.

    Hi Sonila, we have new neighbors from Albania and we're making this dish tomorrow to share with them. We've made Turkish borek before but one thing we never really get 100% is the yogurt dipping sauce. Right now we use a spice mix from Germany called dill-krauter and then add some extra dill. Any recommendations for a more authentic yogurt sauce?

      Do you have strained yogurt or a creamy style labneh? Add diced cucumbers, fresh dill, minced garlic, salt and olive oil to get the dip!!
      Albanians also make a yogurt style cold soup with same ingredients called tarator: whole milk yogurt, cucumber, garlic, salt, dill and olive oil to accompany most summer dishes.
      Some regions in Albania might add red wine vinegar as topping to the dip but after mixing it you can’t even tell it’s there.
      Final thought on the recipe, yogurt might make a difference, whole milk yogurt with no flavor is best. Greek yogurt is 2nd best but you might need to thin it a bit for the cold soup or strain it more for the dip.
      And finally Albanians appreciate hospitality so so much, it’s important to our culture. We love hosting and sharing our table even when we don’t have much, and when we have some we go overboard and really enjoy it sharing:)))).
      They’ll appreciate you going out of your way to show them hospitality!! Let me know if I can help with any tips. Enjoy your dinner:).

      We like this Albanian recipe more than the Turkish version we've been having. We made both versions side by side this AM.
