Grease the work surface and rolling pin with vegetable oil. Divide the dough into 2 parts and roll out each part in turn into a rectangle, about 7–8 mm thick. Cut the dough into strips, approximately 3x6 cm. In the middle of each resulting strip, make a slit as in the photo.

Heat the oil well. I fry verguny in a small saucepan; those who have a deep fryer can use it. Carefully lower the Poltava verguny into the hot oil and fry until golden brown. Place the finished verguny on a paper towel to remove excess oil.
