Potato dough for zrazy
Description
The recipe won't take much time. I've long noticed that zrazy (stuffed patties) somehow don't come easily to beginner cooks—the dough is so sticky, it's inconvenient to shape! Using this as an excuse, beginners tend to add excessive amounts of flour, and then complain that the zrazy turned out tasteless! So I really hope my potato dough recipe for zrazy with photos will help you figure out how to prepare this dish properly. Good luck! Serve hot.
