Fried kefir cheese cakes made from dough with baking powder

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 35 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   Take a deep container, pour kefir into it, add vegetable oil. Combine these ingredients until smooth. Then add a little salt and sugar, thoroughly mix all the components of the container so that there is no oily layer on the surface.

2. STEP 2

   

   Next, pour wheat flour sifted through a sieve into the same container.

3. STEP 3

   

   Now add baking powder and start kneading the dough first with a spoon, then continue kneading the dough with your hands until it stops sticking to your hands, becomes soft, but at the same time elastic. Then cover the container with a towel or film and leave the dough to rest for a while.

4. STEP 4

   

   Grate hard cheese on a fine grater. Take another clean container, put grated cheese in it, beat in a chicken egg and combine the ingredients. If desired, add a little ground black pepper and salt (if the cheese is not very salty).

5. STEP 5

   

   Take the “rested” dough and divide it into 8 equal portions. Roll each piece of dough into a small ball. Place the dough balls on a board sprinkled with flour and cover with a towel and film to prevent the dough from drying out.

6. STEP 6

   

   Take one ball of dough and roll it into a thin layer. Place a tablespoon of cheese filling in the center of the dough.

7. STEP 7

   

   Next, pinch the edges of the dough on top so that the filling is inside the future cake. We do the same procedure with the remaining dough balls.

8. STEP 8

   

   Lightly sprinkle the dough with flour. Using a rolling pin, roll them out, forming them into flat cakes.

9. STEP 9

   

   When the flatbreads are ready, take a frying pan with a thick bottom, lightly grease it with vegetable oil and set the frying pan to heat over medium heat. Next, place the flatbreads in a frying pan and fry them on both sides until golden brown.

10. STEP 10

    

    Grease the finished cakes with a small amount of butter. Serve immediately while they are warm. They are very good in combination with sour cream and sour cream-garlic sauce, as sour cream highlights the salty taste of the cheese and makes the flatbread even more delicate in taste.
