Question

Meaty bourekas eaten as a filling meal, should one recite 'Hamotzi' and 'Birkat Hamazon'?

Answer

Hello,

If it is a type of food that is typically eaten for satiety, one should always recite 'Hamotzi' and 'Birkat Hamazon'.

If it is a type of food usually eaten for enjoyment, but now a person eats it for satiety, it depends on the amount consumed.

If one eats an amount sufficient for establishing a meal, recite 'Hamotzi' and 'Birkat Hamazon'. If a small amount is eaten, recite 'Mezonot' and 'Al Hamichya'.
