Rice and Fish Pastries
Description
Homemade pastries for tea. I think everyone loves buns without exception, but when it comes to choosing a filling, everyone has their own preferences. Some prefer meat, others mushrooms or vegetables, many opt for sweet fillings with fruits or jam, but today I want to tell you about mine.

Step 12
Our dough is now ready for further work. Therefore, we oil our hands and the surface where we'll be working with vegetable oil. Then we tear off small pieces of dough and shape them into balls about 4 cm in diameter. We place the balls onto the oiled surface and let them rise for 10-15 minutes. After this time has passed, we take the first ball and roll it out into a flat round shape, placing a little filling (a tablespoon) in the center.

Step 13
Seal the edges of the dough tightly, making sure there are no holes. Repeat the same with all the dough, placing the buns on a baking sheet or any other surface greased with vegetable oil.
