Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make flatbreads with cottage cheese and herbs in a frying pan? Prepare all ingredients according to the list. Pour the sifted wheat flour into a deep bowl. Add vegetable oil, salt and pour in cold water. Knead the dough. You may need a little less or more flour, depending on the consistency of the dough. Read about the properties of flour in a separate article at the end of this recipe.

Step 2

Step 2
First, mix the ingredients with a spoon or spatula until they begin to come together. Then continue with your hands. It will seem that the dough is very sticky and liquid, but during the process of kneading, the dough will gradually become smooth and elastic, and will no longer stick to your hands.

Step 3

Step 3
If necessary, you can add just a little flour, but you need to be careful with the flour so as not to clog the dough, it should turn out very soft. Leave it in a bowl on the table for 15 minutes, covering the top with a towel.

Step 4

Step 4
In the meantime, prepare the filling. I used cilantro and parsley from fresh herbs; if desired, the set of greens can be replaced and supplemented to taste. Rinse fresh herbs thoroughly in running water, dry with a paper towel and finely chop with a knife.

Step 5

Step 5
Place soft cottage cheese in a bowl. If the cottage cheese is grainy, first rub it through a sieve or punch it with a blender. Add salt, ground black pepper to taste and chopped herbs to the bowl with cottage cheese. Mix the ingredients thoroughly until smooth. How to choose cottage cheese, read the article below the steps.

Step 6

Step 6
Divide the rested dough into three equal parts. Roll each of them into a thin round layer.

Step 7

Step 7
Place one third of the curd filling in the center.

Step 8

Step 8
Seal the edges of the dough together to form a pouch.

Step 9

Step 9
Turn it seam side down and carefully, so as not to tear the dough, roll out the dough with the filling into a thin flat cake with a rolling pin. Heat the frying pan on the stove; it does not need to be greased with oil. You will learn how to choose a frying pan by reading the article at the end of the recipe.

Step 10

Step 10
Place the flatbread on a heated frying pan and fry it on both sides for 5 minutes until golden brown. It is better to fry with the lid closed so that it is well baked inside. To prevent the flatbread from puffing up during frying, you can prick it in several places with a fork. Remove the flatbread from the pan and immediately brush with butter. Serve to the table. Bon appetit!
