Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preparing the dough
- In a large bowl, mix the lukewarm water, yeast, and sugar. Stir well.
- Add the flour and salt to the mixture. Once the dough starts to form, transfer it to a work surface and knead for 5 minutes.
- Optionally, add olive oil to the dough during kneading.
- Grease a bowl with oil, place the dough inside, cover it with plastic wrap and a clean towel, and let it rise for an hour.
-
Shaping and filling the pies
- After an hour, the dough should have risen significantly. Dust your palms with flour as the dough is quite soft.
- Tear off pieces of dough and shape them into balls.
- Flatten each ball and place a dollop of jam in the center. Here, prune and strawberry jams are used, but you can use any jam you prefer.
- Seal the pies well to prevent the jam from leaking during frying.
-
Frying the pies
- Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
- Carefully place the pies in the hot oil and fry them until they are golden brown on top.
- Once fried, remove the pies from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain any excess oil.
-
