Method

Tap a step once you've finished it.

Mix the flour with the yeast, sugar and salt, add the milk, oil, yoghurt and egg white, and knead into a soft, slightly sticky dough.
Cover and let rise for 40-45 minutes until doubled.
Mix the feta with the parsley.
Divide the dough into 16 equal pieces, flatten each into a palm-sized round, place a teaspoon of filling in the centre, fold over, and press the edges to seal.
Place on a baking-paper-lined tray, brush with the egg yolk, sprinkle with sesame and nigella seeds, and rest for 15 minutes.
Bake in a 190°C oven for 20-22 minutes until golden brown.
