Macedonian Cheese Pastries with Laminated Dough

Method

1. In a large bowl, mix flour and salt.
2. Add cold butter and cut it into the flour using a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together egg, milk, 2 tbsp olive oil, and cold water.
4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry mixture, stirring until a dough forms.
5. Knead the dough gently on a floured surface for 2-3 minutes, then wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
6. Roll out the dough into a rectangle, then fold it into thirds like a letter. Repeat this process two more times for laminating.
7. After laminating, roll the dough into a thin sheet and cut into 4 equal pieces.
8. Layer each piece with grated cheese, then roll them into logs.
9. Place on a baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes at 180°C (350°F) until golden brown.
