Moldovan Plăcinte with Farmer's Cheese, Dill, and Green Onion

Moldovan hand pies with a farmer's cheese filling—delicious and filling! A neighbor of mine, originally from Moldova, shared this recipe with me. Plăcinte are made from thinly rolled unleavened dough wrapped around all kinds of fillings. Here's a really tasty version with farmer's cheese and fresh herbs.

    Step 17:

  • Sift the flour into a wide bowl, make a well in the center, add the salt, and pour in about 300 ml (1 1/4 cups) of water. Knead a firm, smooth dough and shape it into a ball. Cover with a towel and let it rest for about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, make the filling: mash the farmer's cheese and mix in the eggs, chopped dill, and salt until well combined. Divide the dough into 6–8 equal balls, dusting with flour as needed. Each ball makes one plăcintă. Roll a ball out very thinly into an even circle. Place the cheese filling in the center, spreading it out but leaving the edges bare. Pull the edges up and fold the dough into a square envelope, then bring the corners into the center—this keeps the pastry from getting too thick. Place each plăcintă seam-side down in a skillet with hot oil. Fry them one at a time over medium heat, golden on both sides. Serve hot. Just a few simple ingredients, and you end up with something really appetizing.
