Necessary ingredients:
- 3 large sheets of pastry
- 300 grams of minced veal (or a combination with pork for a more intense flavor)
- 250 grams of crumbled telemea cheese
- 150 grams of grated cheese
- 2 large onions, finely chopped
- 5 cloves of garlic, crushed
- 1 large tablespoon of chili paste (sambal)
- 2 tablespoons of soy sauce
- 4 tablespoons of olive oil
- Seasonings for minced meat (or salt, pepper, paprika)
- 1 small can of tomato paste
- 5 eggs
- 2 tablespoons of dried parsley
- 50 grams of butter
- Fresh cold yogurt, for serving

Ingredient details:
Veal is an excellent choice due to its tender texture and subtle flavor. Telemea cheese will add a salty and creamy note, while the grated cheese will provide a delicious crunch at the end. Garlic and onion are favorites in many dishes due to their intense flavors and will enrich the composition. If you want a spicy version, the chili paste is the key ingredient. Use high-quality olive oil for a refined taste.

Step by step:

1. Preparing the meat filling:
In a large skillet, add the olive oil and heat it over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and sauté until translucent. Then, add the crushed garlic and sauté for another minute until the aroma is released. Now, add the minced meat and desired seasonings (salt, pepper, paprika). Cook until the meat is well browned.

2. Adding flavoring ingredients:
When the meat is almost cooked, pour in the soy sauce and the can of tomato paste. Add the chili paste (sambal) and mix everything well. Let the mixture simmer for a few minutes to blend the flavors. Turn off the heat and let the mixture cool slightly.

3. Assembling the dish:
On a clean surface, roll out the first sheet of pastry. Evenly sprinkle the crumbled telemea cheese over the entire surface of the sheet. Then, place the second sheet of pastry on top and spread the meat mixture over the entire surface. Place the third sheet of pastry on top and roll everything tightly, forming a log. Cut the log into slices of about 8-10 cm.

4. Preparing the baking tray:
Place damp and squeezed baking paper inside a cake tin, so that it takes its shape. Place the first slice of dough in the center and the other slices around it, forming a flower shape.

5. Finalizing the dish:
Add a slice of butter on top of each slice of pastry and evenly sprinkle the grated cheese. In a bowl, beat the 5 eggs with the dried parsley and pour the mixture over the dish in the tray.

6. Baking:
Preheat the oven to 160 degrees Celsius. Place the tray in the oven and let it bake for about 1 hour, or until the dish turns golden and well browned.

7. Serving:
Remove the flower from the oven and let it cool slightly. Then, transfer it to a large plate. Serve warm, alongside a large glass of cold yogurt – the combination is perfect to balance the rich flavors of the dish.

Tips and variations:
If you have time and want to experiment, you can make pastry sheets at home, but remember this is a quick and simple recipe! Additionally, you can add vegetables to the filling, such as peppers or mushrooms, to bring extra flavor and nutrients.

Nutritional information:
This recipe is a good source of protein due to the meat and eggs, while cheese and grated cheese provide calcium and vitamins. Of course, it is a "caloric bomb," but its rich taste and delicious texture make it a perfect choice for special occasions!
