Lenten pies made with broth with yeast without eggs

We ate these pies at school, at the train station and at the market! Here is the prescription! Many people remember thin, hot, fragrant pies with a delicate potato filling from childhood - when hungry, just running from the street, we grabbed them from a bowl, and our mothers, smiling, sent us to wash our hands and grimy faces... Or a plump, cheerful woman at the station I wrapped our pie (or a couple) in gray wrapping paper. And hot sweet tea was a must. Eh! You need to make these pies at home. Who's with me?!

    Drain 350 ml of the dough broth.

    STEP 7

    Add butter to potatoes and make mashed potatoes.

  10. STEP 10

    STEP 10

    Add onions to potatoes.

  11. STEP 11

    Mix well and cool the filling. Try the filling, you should like it.

  12. STEP 12

    STEP 12

    We measure out the ingredients for the dough.

  13. STEP 13

    STEP 13

    Sift the flour.

  14. STEP 14

    STEP 14

    Add yeast to it.

  15. STEP 15

    STEP 15

  17. STEP 17

  18. STEP 18

    STEP 18

    Knead the dough well. It's sticky.

  19. STEP 19

    STEP 19

    Don't worry, this is normal and good.

  20. STEP 20

    STEP 20

    Watch the video to see how to handle this test. It's interesting and after two or three batches of pies you will like it. This is a very good bread experience.

  21. STEP 21

    STEP 21

    Place the dough in a greased bowl, round and cover with cling film. Leave to rise in a warm place for 1.5-2 hours or until doubled in volume.

  22. STEP 22

    STEP 22

    The dough is ready, it is no longer so sticky.

  23. STEP 23

    STEP 23

    Divide the dough into portions, lightly greasing the table and hands with oil.

  24. STEP 24

    STEP 24

    Round them off. This process is also well shown in the video.

  25. STEP 25

    STEP 25

    It is better to make cakes in two stages. Make small ones first.

  26. STEP 26

    STEP 26

    And then, a little later, stretch it to larger and thinner cakes.

  27. STEP 27

    STEP 27

    Place the filling. The more it is, the tastier the pie.

  28. STEP 28

    STEP 28

    Form into pies.

  29. STEP 29

    STEP 29

    Make them flat and turn them seam side down.

  30. STEP 30

    STEP 30

    Heat the oil and fry the pies.

  31. STEP 31

    STEP 31

    When the oil covers the pies less than halfway, it is called frying. When the oil is above the middle or covers the patty, but the patty lies on the bottom, this is spinning, and when the patty floats freely, it is deep frying.

  32. STEP 32

    STEP 32

    Cook the pies on both sides until golden brown. Then place on a napkin or mesh to remove excess oil.

Foster, great pies! At the station, maybe earlier you could buy and eat something for your benefit, but now it’s most likely for your detriment, so it’s better to cook at home - at the very least, but your own will be safer, especially with such a gorgeous recipe. An interesting version of kneading is the French one, and I also liked the advice about butter and flour and burning. Thank you very much for the recipe and tips!

Thanks for the recipe! I've never tried fried pies, I'll have to try this recipe. The most important thing is that the dough turns out well and the pies are not hard and wooden.

I really like to prepare yeast dough, especially for bread, to feel how it breathes... But for potato broth, this is the first time I’ve seen a recipe. I’ll definitely try it, your pies look so beautiful. I think they taste good too. Thanks for the recipe.
