Description

Perfect with tea and coffee. Chebureki is a dish that has rightfully earned the recognition of the people of the Caucasus region. It is also considered Mongolian, Turkic, Crimean, Greek. Nevertheless, culinary history has not answered where chebureki were first made. But one principle has remained the same. Plain dough, meat and onion. It might seem like ordinary pies. But these pies are not baked; they are fried in a large amount of hot oil. Any kind of meat can be used for the filling. And together with a generous amount of onion, we get a hot, aromatic, well‑fried on all sides, juicy dish. Many believe that chebureki with bubbles are achieved only if you add vodka to the dough. I tried dough with vodka and without it and didn’t notice any special difference. In my view, the key is to roll the dough very thin and everything will turn out. Serve warm or cooled. Perfect with tea.
