Bourekia is  a type of pie, made of a thin flaky dough known as phyllo, and are filled with anari which is the name for anthotyro in Cyprus.   Anari is similar to anthotyro or myzithra and is a white soft whey cheese  which is produced when making halloumi or kefalotyri.

Bourekia can also be made savory with other kind of salty cheese,  such as halloumi or feta or minced meat, mushrooms, potatoes or other vegetables.
