Belyashi (dough recipe)
Description
Homemade pastries for tea. You can make classic yeast dough using a traditional recipe, but I'll show you an interesting and quite quick alternative, which in my opinion turns out to be wonderful. Cottage cheese works perfectly here—the dough becomes tender, airy, and pleasantly crisp after frying. This recipe is definitely worth trying at least once. Serve with tea or coffee.
