📌Ingredients for dough
3 1/4 cup flour
1/2 tsp salt
3 tbsp butter
3 cup water
..
📌Ingredients for coating
2 beaten eggs Breadcrumbs
📍Method.
Add the butter, salt, to water and allow to boil. Then add the flour.Stir quickly so everything is combined. Turn over to a floured surface and knead into a smooth dough. Divide into 3 parts, keep covered in container so it remains warm. Roll out them using slight flour. (Do not use too much flour as the pies will not stick when making). Cut out using a circles to the size you wish. You will be able to cut many circles at once. I usually cut all circles and keep covered in container so they don't dry up. Take the circle in your palm and fill with spoonfuls. Do not let the mixture touch the sides, otherwise your pies will not stick. Carefully press the dough on edges to form pies. Dip in beaten eggs and coat in breadcrumb. Deep fry in medium hot oil and enjoy ❤❤
The dough that remains when you cut out the circle, knead it and allow to rest for a while again before rolling. In the meantime use the other dough.
You may make little balls and roll individually but that will take too long.
