I usually try not to show pies on the blog; after all, they are not bread. But this does not mean that I never do them, and that there cannot be exceptions. These pies are an exception, they are magical! Need I add that this whale, which is the basis of family comfort and well-being, was again given to us by Luda.

These pies are the best of all that I have made in my life, so I warmly recommend them to everyone without exception!

The dough for these pies is made in three stages:

Yeast preparation - 1 hour
- dough - 1 hour
- resting - 1 hour.

Just 3 hours + 20 minutes to rest and chill the dough in the refrigerator.

Recipe for 1 kg of dough, this is approximately 27 - 28 pies (35 g of dough + 25 g of filling):

Yeast (30-60 minutes at 35-42C):

8 g - dry active yeast(Saf levure)
50 g - premium flour
145 g - hot water(40-45C).

Dough (1 hour at 18-24C with one active knead):

425 g - premium flour
200 g - all yeast
9 g - salt
10 g - sugar
85 g - eggs (I got 1 egg + 1 yolk)
140 g - water or half water with whey.

Roasting (1 hour at 18-24C):

Add to the test:
50 g - premium flour
40 g - sugar
50 g - ghee or 60-65g butter or margarine (I use margarine).

After fermentation, knead the dough for two minutes in a dough mixer until silky, put it in a container and place in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes, after which the dough will be ready for cutting.

Cutting the dough.

Divide the dough into pieces weighing 35-38 grams, roll up, roll out balls and place on a surface greased with a thin layer of oil;

Flatten the balls with your hands;

Spread out the filling;

Make pies;

Give the pies the desired shape and flatten;

Proofing 20 minutes;

Fry in oil at a temperature of 170-185C until a beautiful color.

Methodology in illustrations.

The first stage is preparing the yeast. In 40 minutes they became quite suitable for kneading dough. The main thing is the temperature is about 40C:

Stage two - dough:

The dough is kneaded quite easily, it is neither liquid nor thick. 8 minutes at maximum speed - and you're done.
The photo shows the dough after kneading, then after 30 minutes of fermentation.
The lower photos are the dough after kneading for two minutes in a dough mixer and after another 30 minutes of fermentation.

While the yeast is being prepared, the dough is fermenting and the dough is being baked, there is time to prepare any fillings.

Today I had:

Liver with rice and egg;
- from apples with orange zest;
- and cabbage with egg.

The dough is ready for baking - this is a technique for introducing baking into the dough towards the end of fermentation, a technique that allows you to reduce the load on the yeast during fermentation, since baking greatly inhibits them:

I think that if you use modern osmotolerant yeast, such as Saf Instant Gold, then the baking can be added to the dough all at once.

After adding the last portion of baking, the dough is kneaded just as easily, but its consistency becomes weaker. Dough for 1 hour of fermentation:

The fermented dough also needs to be twisted in a dough mixer for a couple of minutes and placed in a container.
Let the dough rest for 20-30 minutes in the refrigerator.

Professionals, of course, will not measure 35 gram pieces of dough on a scale, it takes a long time, but I’m not a pro, so I did everything on a scale:

The more I work with "fridge dough" the more I love it! Last night I thought it would be nice to fry some meat pies for dinner. In the evening, while I was walking the dog and going shopping for meat, the dough was ripe. Late in the evening while I was watching Dexter, the dough is ripe and the filling is stewed. And all this went into the refrigerator.

In the morning, while back and forth, the dough warmed up and puffed up again. The filling warmed up in a minute in the microwave. And an hour before lunch, I made the pies and put them to proof. Before lunch I fried it and served it hot. How easy!

Otherwise, preparing pies takes planning 5-6 hours in advance, and I don’t know about you, but it hampers me and chains me to the stove from 6 a.m. until lunchtime, and the further in the future you plan, the more likely it is that your plans will something will intervene as the day progresses.

I show the details of preparing minced meat and creating the special shape of these pies.


In the old days, frying pans were cast iron or other metal ones, and the meat was fried in fat so that it would not stick. First, the fat was heated in a frying pan, then the minced meat was added and fried. Then add water and simmer until soft. Prepared separately white sauce: flour was fried in fat, broth or milk was added and boiled until the sauce thickened and was ready. Then they combined the finished meat with the sauce and warmed it up. So it turned out to be a coherent soft meat filling. Well, it was very fatty. The minced meat itself was fatty, ground from meat with fat, and it was also fried in fat, and the sauce was prepared in fat, and then the pies were fried in animal fat (lard, shortening, ghee).

Nowadays, you can grind or buy exclusively low-fat minced meat or even “fat-free” minced meat. And cook the same filling in a Teflon frying pan, without fat. It's done like this.

Dissolve the minced meat in an equal amount of water. For example, for 500g of minced meat, 500g of water. Turn on the burner and, stirring, heat it, breaking up the slightest lumps. Leave to simmer until soft and water evaporates. The leaner the meat, the more thoroughly you need to simmer it until tender.


In this case, the minced meat itself will release a sufficient amount of fat for frying. Even extra-low-fat minced meat contains fat and will release some fat into the bottom of the pan with the water.

Allow the water to completely evaporate and fry the meat in its own fat, stirring frequently over high heat. The more “crusts”, the tastier and more aromatic the filling.

When the minced meat is browned, sprinkle it with a spoon of flour and stir, warming it up.


Add water again, add salt and pepper and cook, stirring, until tender, juicy, cohesive minced meat is formed.

It is easily applied with a teaspoon onto dough cakes in 20g portions and does not crumble. To make the pies rise faster before baking, add them to the filling. very warm ground meat.

The pie is pinched over the minced meat and given the shape of a long, even boat, almost a tube. Since the minced meat inside is plastic and cohesive, it holds its shape well. Prove with the seam side up so that after proofing, you can touch up the unbuttoned shirts of the dough here and there.

After proofing, the tubes will double in volume and another three to four times during frying in oil, where they will turn into “airships”: plump, smooth and rounded like inflated balloons.

The pies are fried over medium heat, at 375F for 3-4 minutes, 1-2 minutes per side. Ready-made pies Remove to a paper towel to drain. Fried products Serve hot or warm.
