Easy recipe

And here is an easier recipe of Zelnik

Ingredients needed for Zelnik:
- 1 kg of flour
- 1 egg
- salt, cooking oil, water
- For filling chose: spinach, leek, potato, cheese, eggs, cabbage…

Zelnik preparation:
Prepare the paste: Divide it into two pieces and then each piece divide into 10 equal pieces. Make a "kora" of each piece. "Kora" is a thin peace of paste made by rolling tin. Spread some oil on each "kora" and put one "kora" on another until you use 10 for one big "kora" and the other ten for another big kora. One "kora" should be bigger than another. Take the smaller one and put it at the bottom of a saucepan. Spread the filling. Put the other "kora" (the bigger one) on the filling and place it nicely. Pour some oil on top.
Put the saucepan in the oven. Bakei it on temperature of 250°C for half an hour.
Filling: chop the vegetable and fry it on oil for a while.

PS. Zelnik is also known as "Banitsa" in bulgarian cuisine, so you can search for banitsa (also spelled as "banica", "banitza") recipes.
