Step cooking
- Pour 180 ml of water into the pan and put it on the stove to boil.
- Sift 360 g flour into a bowl.
- In water, just removed from the fire, add 1 teaspoon of salt, mix until the salt dissolves.
- In the flour, make a deepening and pour boiling water in parts. Mix the dough with a fork.
- Add 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil and continue to knead the dough with a fork.
- As soon as the mass becomes warm and the hands can endure, we shift the dough onto the table and knead the dough.
- Knead the dough for about 4-5 minutes. The dough is pleasant, soft, elastic. Wrap the dough in a bag and put it in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes.
- After this time, we roll out the flagellum from the dough and divide it into 12 parts. Roll up the ball from each part. We put the pellet balls in a bowl and cover with cling film so that they do not dry out, and let them rest for a few minutes. We get the balls one at a time.
- The diameter of the cake will be approximately 22 centimeters. Take the first piece, knead it a little with your hands. We dust the board with flour and roll the cake. The cake should be very thin, such that the table is visible.
- We give the cake a rounded shape with the help of a plate.
- We roll all the cakes at once, because they are fried too quickly. Sprinkle them with flour and stack them on top of each other.
