Samsa with potatoes and minced meat

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr 30 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   Mix flour with salt, baking powder, yeast, and sugar.

2. STEP 2

   

   Add butter and milk.

3. STEP 3

   

   Let's knead the dough.

4. STEP 4

   

   Add a little flour if necessary, put it in a cup and cover with a towel, leave for 30 minutes.

5. STEP 5

   

   For the filling we take minced meat, potatoes, and onions.

6. STEP 6

   

   Peel the potatoes and cook until done. Finely chop the onion, fry it, then add minced meat and salt. And fry until done.

7. STEP 7

   

   Let's make the sauce. Put the frying pan on the fire. Melt butter with vegetable oil. Add a spoonful of flour. Bring to a slightly brown color. Gradually add 20% cream. And cook the sauce until thickened, add salt to taste.

8. STEP 8

   

   This is what it should be like.

9. STEP 9

   

   Now mix it with the minced meat.

10. STEP 10

    

    Our potatoes are boiled, add some water and mash them. Add butter to taste. So we will have minced meat, potatoes, a mixture for rolling (mix flour with starch), and a mixture for greasing samsa (mix vegetable oil with butter). Everything should be warm, not hot.

11. STEP 11

    

    Our dough has rested. We take it and knead it again. Divide into 8-9 parts. Form balls, place on a board, cover with a towel, and leave for 15 minutes.

12. STEP 12

    

    Now take each ball and dip it in the mixture with starch. And roll it out lightly.

13. STEP 13

    

    Then we roll out 4 pieces together. Up to 25-30 cm in diameter. Separate them one by one.

14. STEP 14

    

    Now let's take the flatbread. Grease the center with oil. And turn the cake over. Next, put a spoonful of potatoes and minced meat on top.

15. STEP 15

    

    Now let's collect this bag.

16. STEP 16

    

    Twist the top. The base remains motionless. And we straighten the top, it turns out to be a skirt. We make beautiful folds.

17. STEP 17

    

    Now we take it in our hands and bend the edges. We lubricated the bottom with oil so that everything would stick well. You can also spread butter under the last one.

18. STEP 18

    

    This is how samsa turns out. We do the same with the rest of the dough.

19. STEP 19

    

    Place on a sheet of paper. Preheat the oven to 200 gr. Bake for 25 minutes. Before baking, brush the top with the butter mixture.

20. STEP 20

    

    Grease the finished samsa with oil again. Bon appetit.

21. STEP 21

    

    Tasty...!

We've already taken a sample. True, I made the sauce with milk and added herbs to the filling, it turned out very tasty too! It seemed to me a little difficult to separate the flatbreads after simultaneously rolling out 4 pieces together; the second batch I already rolled out each flatbread separately, it’s easier. And I tried changing the size to a smaller one, everything turned out great. The dough is good, easy to work with and tasty, and together with the filling - a fairy tale! Esenija, THANK YOU for the successful recipe, it will become a favorite! Here's a photo report...
