Gently saute the onion for around 5 mins till soft. Add the mince meat and brown. Add a pinch of cinnamon, salt and pepper and the chopped Parsley and stir well. On a gentle heat add the egg taking care not to let it scramble.
Let this mixture cool else the pastry will disintegrate.
Place 2 – 3 tbs of the beef mixture about 1.5 inches from the bottom of the feuille de brik leaving approx an inch either side, cut the cheese in half and lay across the mixture. Pull the brik up from the bottom, fold the sides to the centre of section and continue to roll. Place the Boreks (fold side down) in a frying pan with Vegetable oil and fry on both sides until golden.
