Kefir tortillas in a frying pan with filling

Delicious and simple tortillas with sorrel filling! Many, probably, who were a child in Soviet times, remember the taste of tortillas that their grandmothers often fried for them. When there was no special variety of pastries and other sweets in stores, mothers and grandmothers baked delicious pastries for their children from what was at hand. For example, cakes on kefir with different fillings. In the summer, it is not uncommon for pastries with greens that grew on the plot to be served to the table.
