✨Hello, my name is Oksana! I am glad to welcome everyone who has looked at my page. Thanks so much for taking the time to read my recipes! I would be grateful for your comments and subscriptions!
✅👌I really love to delight my family with homemade cakes, especially they love fried pies. The very ones are yeast, with a fluffy soft dough and a lot of filling.
✨ On the other hand, I have very little free time for cooking, so it is not always possible to wait for the rise of the dough. I tried to cook pies on kefir dough, but recently I learned the recipe for a "quick" yeast dough and I liked this quick version the most. I suggest you try it too.
📕To make pies you will need: 🥙
Wheat flour of the highest grade - 2 cups
Warm water - 0.5 cups
Steep boiling water - 0.5 cups
Fast-acting yeast, dry - 1 tsp. l.
Sugar - 0.5 tbsp. l.
Salt - 0.5 tsp l.
Sunflower oil - 2 tbsp l. + for working with dough + for frying
The filling is of your choice, I had mashed potatoes with fried onions.
👨🏻🍳 Let's start cooking... ⤵️⤵️⤵️
I must say right away that this is half the norm, and 15 pies of a standard size are obtained from it. If you are used to frying pies in large batches, feel free to double the amount of ingredients. First, pour half a glass (125 ml) of warm water into some convenient container (it can be a bowl or a glass) and add yeast and sugar there.
Shake with a spoon so that the grains disperse through the liquid. Leave on the table for 5-7 minutes to "wake up" the yeast. When this happens, a foam cap will appear on the surface of the water.
Now sift the flour into a deep bowl, add salt to it and mix. Pour the prepared yeast mixture into the flour.
Mix with a spatula. The mass will turn out to be heterogeneous, with large lumps. Part of the flour will remain dry, but you shouldn't worry, because we added only half of the liquid.
Then pour boiling water into the dough. Do not be afraid (I was also worried at first), he will not boil the yeast fungus, because we pour it not into "pure" yeast, but already mixed with flour.
Knead the dough quickly. You can use your hands, but carefully so as not to burn yourself. I usually do this with a mixer. Knead the dough until smooth. You may need to add a couple more spoons of flour, but not more. As you knead and cool, the dough will become more elastic and soft. At the very end, pour in vegetable oil.
And you can immediately start forming the pies ...Absolutely no need to wait for the dough to rise !!! We divide it into 15 approximately equal pieces weighing 40 g each.
Then we take one piece, roll it into a ball, flatten it and put the filling in the center. The filling can be either sweet or savory.
We connect and stick together the edges of the dough, forming a pie. We trim the shape of the workpiece.
As soon as 3-4 pies are stuck together, pour oil into the pan and heat it up, spread the first batch to fry. We take into account that the workpieces will increase by about 1.5 times during frying. Cook over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, until golden brown.
Turn the pies over and bring the second side to readiness. We traditionally put the fried pies on a napkin to get rid of the fat left after frying.
These pies always turn out to be very soft and do not stale for a long time. Instead of bread or for a snack, my family members gobble them up by both cheeks.
