Make a dough for fried pies yourself- it's not only nice (doing something with your own hands is always great!), But also economically. Sour milk, although the water is right, one extra egg (and where else to put it, do not do scam!), A piece of butter - everything will go to work. In this case, you need to buy only yeast and flour (kilogram packaging). But the landlady who loves to cook and these products always have.
The proportions of ingredients: 1 egg, 1.3 cups of milk, 50 grams of butter, a packet of high-speed yeast or 30 grams of dry, 3.5 cups of flour.
The main thing is to get the dough right.If you do this for the first time - it may not rise at all. If you are looking at a lot of eyes, waiting for you to show the "class" - too, can not work. Cooking, so that they do not speak there, still have to be done with the soul.
To make a dough for fried patties should be so.
Let's start with yeast.The so-called "high-speed" yeast has long appeared in supermarkets. They do not need to be previously diluted in water to prepare for fermentation in the test. However, the practice has shown: if they are immediately added to the flour, as it is written in the instructions on the package, your yeast dough will not rise. The instructions also indicate the proportions of flour and yeast, they also differ from the proportions in popular recipes. Focus on this: half-packs of such yeast (in a pack of 11 grams) for 3.5 glasses of flour (exactly the amount we need for the test).
So, we breed 5 g of fast-acting yeast (30 ggrams of normal yeast) in a small amount of warm water (in no case hot, but to work, and not cold, just warmer than room temperature). If you use conventional yeast - add to this solution a little sugar (a teaspoonful). Stir.
While the yeast is soaked in water, in a large saucepan pour the flour - 3.5 cups (from a kilogram pack there will be something, but this amount of flour is still needed).
Separately mix the egg, salt (half teaspoonfulspoons) and milk (you can sour, you can have plain water) in the amount of 1 glass and another quarter of the glass. Pour the resulting mixture into a flour, add to the pan with flour and a mixture of yeast and quickly knead. The dough for fried pies will turn out to be tight, but we still have one more ingredient - butter.
50 gr of oil (the fourth part of the 200-gram pack)melt in a frying pan. By the way, in shops already sold melted butter, it is cheaper and perfectly suited for this test. Be sure to cool it! Otherwise, the dough just cooked. While the oil cools, stir the dough.
Add the melted butter to the dough, stir for another five minutes.
Dough can be cleaned in a warm place, covering the pan with a towel. Not a lid, not something else, because otherwise the dough will harden on top, you have to rip off this crust.
After an hour the dough will rise, you need to pull it outpots, crumple their hands, pre-sprinkling the table with flour. Put back for another 1-1.5 hours. Longer dough for pies (fried) can not be kept! It will acquire the taste of fermented yeast, and the cakes will be completely insipid.
All preparations are finished, finally readydough for fried patties. The recipe described here contains the main ingredients for the yeast dough, but some of them can be changed to similar ones (sour milk for kefir, for example), you can change the number of ingredients. The dough for fried pies will be tastier if you put more eggs in it (2-3). If instead of milk to take sour cream, butter for kneading dough is not needed at all, and flour will be required less (2 cups). But such experiments should be set only after you master this simple recipe.
If you did everything right, pan upfill with the test. Before making pies, remember the dough well. This amount is enough for half a kilo of stuffing. And what to stuff - choose yourself. Fried pies can be cooked with meat, and with fruits, and with cottage cheese, in general, with anything!
