Bomb pies with tomatoes and cheese

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr 20 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   Ingredients.

2. STEP 2

   

   Preparing the dough for Bombochki pies. Pour 1 cup of boiling water into a cup, stir in salt, sugar, and vegetable oil.

3. STEP 3

   

   Then gradually add flour and knead the dough. You may need less or more flour, so you don’t need to add it all at once.

4. STEP 4

   

   Cover the dough with cellophane or a towel and leave for 30 minutes.

5. STEP 5

   

   Let's prepare the filling. Mash the cheese or cottage cheese with a fork; if you use cottage cheese, you will need to add salt to it. Add the garlic, passed through a garlic press, then finely chopped herbs. Stir well to distribute the garlic and salt evenly. Add grated cheese (if you don’t have it, you can do without it).

6. STEP 6

   

   Cut the tomatoes into rings 5 ​​mm thick. Choose tomatoes of such a size that they fit freely into the glass you will use to cut out the pies.

7. STEP 7

   

   Divide the dough into 2 parts, dust the table with flour and roll out the dough to a thickness of 2-3 mm. Place tomato slices on a layer of dough at a distance of about 2 cm from each other.

8. STEP 8

   

   Distribute the cheese or cottage cheese filling among all the tomato circles.

9. STEP 9

   

   Take the second part of the dough and cover the filling. At the same time, we do not stretch the dough; we need it to lie freely between the filling; you can press the dough with your fingers in the places between the filling. If the upper part is tightly stretched, then when cutting out the edges will diverge, and it will be difficult to mold them. Because the tomatoes will give juice and the edges will be moist.

10. STEP 10

    

    We take an ordinary faceted glass and cut out the pies. The dough itself sticks well, so the edges close tightly when cutting. We collect the rest of the dough into a ball, knead it and roll it out again into a layer - spread the filling in half, cover with the other half. Repeat until the end. Place the pieces on a flour-dusted surface.

11. STEP 11

    

    Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan and reduce heat to medium. Place bomb pies and fry on both sides. It is better to cover the frying pan with a lid, so that the oil does not splatter if any juice leaks from the filling.

12. STEP 12

    

    Place the finished pies on napkins or a towel to absorb excess oil.

13. STEP 13

    

    Bomb pies are ready! Let them cool slightly, as the dough may be warm on top, but the tomatoes inside will be hot and you can burn yourself. Invite everyone to the table, bon appetit!

"Bombs" are just super! Original filling. I did it more than once. It tastes better with feta cheese (it gives a special, piquant flavor) and the main thing is not to skimp on herbs and seasonings. It's easy and quick to prepare.

The pies are delicious. I cut the tomatoes into small cubes and mixed them with cottage cheese, dill and garlic.
