Quick pies on dry yeast

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   Heat half of the water (125 ml) in an iron bowl to a temperature of 40 degrees. Pour it into a bowl in which we will knead the dough, pour in yeast, sugar and salt, pour in vegetable oil.

2. Step 2:

   

   Mix until the sugar and salt dissolve.

3. Step 3:

   

   Pour in the sifted flour. I poured 320 grams at once. You can pour not all the flour at once, but most of it and then adjust the consistency of the dough on the table in the second stage described below.

4. Step 4:

   

   Mix everything thoroughly with a spoon until all the water is absorbed into the flour.

5. Step 5:

   

   Boil the rest of the water (125 ml) and pour it into a bowl with dough.

6. Step 6:

   

   Quickly mix the dough until all the flour lumps disappear. The dough turns out to be quite sticky.

7. Step 7:

   

   Sprinkle the table with sifted flour and spread the dough. We knead it with our hands, gradually adding flour. What consistency should the dough be? As soon as it does not stop being sticky, we do not add flour anymore. It took me exactly 50 grams of flour to get it. In total, I needed 370 grams of flour (320 in the dough and 50 in the podpyl), as I indicated in the recipe. You may have more or less of it, since all the flour is different.

9. Step 8:

   

   The dough turns pliable and elastic. We form a ball out of it. He will not need time for proofing. We will cook right away.

10. Step 9:

    

    Divide the dough into equal pieces and roll them into balls. I got 7 pieces weighing about 70-75 grams. You can divide the dough into 10 pieces weighing about 50 grams, so that the pies come out smaller in size.

11. Step 10:

    

    We knead each piece with our hands into a medium-thick cake. We spread the filling. I used mashed potatoes mixed with fried onions as a filling. You can stuff the pies with stewed cabbage, cottage cheese, jam, etc .

12. Step 11:

    

    Pinch the edges tightly, forming an oblong pie. We press the seam of the mute.

13. Step 12:

    

    Preheat the frying pan with the addition of vegetable oil, which should reach half of the pies. My frying pan has a bottom diameter of 20 centimeters, I needed 200 ml of oil. Fry the pies on medium heat on one side until browning. I had them fried for about 5-7 minutes.

14. Step 13:

    

    Turn them over to the other side and fry until cooked. It took me another 5 minutes. We remove the finished pies from the pan and fry the next batch. I didn't add any more oil. The pies were not greasy, so I didn't need a paper towel.
