Cooking Features

Making delicious chebureks with your own hands is not as difficult a task as it may seem. You just need to know a few subtleties and find a suitable recipe.

  • Many housewives pay a lot of attention to the stuffing, pushing the preparation of dough to the background or even using purchased puff pastry. Others make the opposite mistake by carefully choosing the recipe for the dough, but filling it up with the usual store stuffing, supplemented only with salt and pepper. In fact, both the dough and the stuffing in the pasties play an equally important role, and even the oil on which they are fried, lays its mark on the taste of the finished dish.
  • Traditional pasta dough is bland. It is prepared only from flour, water and salt, sometimes with a small addition of vegetable oil - for elasticity. However, no less popular choux dough, kefir, beer, with the addition of butter, vodka. It is believed that the dough with the addition of fats and eggs comes out more elastic, alcoholic beverages, on the contrary, make it more crispy. The choice of the recipe for the dough depends on the gastronomic preferences of the hostess and her family members.
  • Cold water is added to the fresh dough, hot water is added to the choux pastry. This moment is considered important.
  • Flour for dough is recommended to take high quality. Sieve before use. Flour is often required more than what is indicated in the recipe: it goes on sprinkling boards, rolling pins, hands of a cook.
  • To make the filling juicy, you need to put a lot of onions in it. It is usually finely chopped. If chopped onion blender, the stuffing can become too thin.
  • Spices and herbs are added to the mince, taking into account the type of meat used. Especially important is the role of seasoning, if mutton is used for the filling, as it has a specific smell.
  • After filling the dough with minced meat, its edges should be bonded very carefully. If even the smallest gap remains, the juice will flow out of the cheburek, as a result of which it will become less tasty. Seal the edges will be easier if moistened with water.
  • Fry chebureks need in a hot frying pan in a large amount of boiling vegetable oil. It must be refined, odorless. If you fry a large number of chebureks, the oil should be changed periodically.

Most often pasties are made with a filling of different types of meat, but many people like unusual options (with mushrooms, cheese, cabbage). It is acceptable to use mixed toppings (meat and mushrooms, meat and cheese). Doing pasties at home, the hostess can experiment.
