Dargin-style chudu with potatoes
Description
Delicious baked treat for the whole family. Chudu can be prepared with any filling to taste, but the classic version is Dargin-style chudu with potatoes. It is the combination of meat and potatoes in yeast dough that gives this dish its distinctive flavor. Traditionally, chudu is made with beef, and the appearance resembles a closed yeast pie with filling. I've explained and shown how to make it. The baking is ready. Serve at the table.

1. Chudu is essentially a closed pie with a filling made from yeast dough. It's simple to prepare: first, we need to make a classic direct yeast dough. Dissolve yeast in water (you can use kefir for a fluffier dough), then add salt and flour. Knead a firm dough and let it rise in a warm place.
