Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to fry kefir flatbreads with cottage cheese and herbs in a frying pan? Prepare the ingredients according to the list. You can use kefir that is not very fresh; fermented kefir will make the dough even better. Sift the flour through a sieve to saturate it with oxygen. Thanks to this, the finished cakes will be more tender.

Step 2

Step 2
Kefir should be warm; it must be removed from the refrigerator in advance and left on the table for a couple of hours, or warmed up a little. Add baking soda and salt to the bowl with kefir and stir to speed up the reaction. Bubbles should appear on the surface of the kefir.

Step 3

Step 3
Add sifted wheat flour to the bowl with the liquid mixture. Add it in parts, stirring the dough; you don’t need to pour all the flour into the bowl at once. Depending on the type of flour, you may need a little more or a little less. You can read more about flour and its properties in a separate article, link at the end of the recipe.

Step 4

Step 4
The dough turns out sticky and soft. You don’t need to knead it with your hands for a long time; the main task is to gather the dough into a lump. Cover the bowl with the dough with a towel and leave to “rest” for 20 minutes on the table.

Step 5

Step 5
Meanwhile, prepare the filling for the tortillas. It is better to use natural, full-fat cottage cheese and always fresh. Read about how to choose cottage cheese for the dough in a separate article, link at the end of the recipe. Rub it through a sieve or punch it with a blender, it should be uniform in consistency, large grains of cottage cheese will not allow you to roll out the flatbread with filling thinly and can tear the dough.

Step 6

Step 6
For the filling, as a rule, fresh onions, dill and parsley are used; the composition of the greens can be changed to taste. In winter, you can use frozen greens; this does not affect the taste of the cakes. Wash the greens, dry and finely chop with a knife.

Step 7

Step 7
Combine cottage cheese with herbs in a bowl, add salt and ground black pepper to taste, mix the ingredients until a curd mass is obtained. Divide the filling into 4 equal parts for the flatbreads.

Step 8

Step 8
Divide the “rested” dough into 4 equal parts.

Step 9

Step 9
Roll each of them into a thin round layer. Place one piece of curd filling in the center.

Step 10

Step 10
Press the edges of the dough together to form a ball with the filling, press the ball slightly with your hand and sprinkle flour on both sides.

Step 11

Step 11
Roll the ball with a rolling pin into a thin cake.

Step 12

Step 12
In a dry frying pan, fry the tortilla for about 3 minutes on each side over medium heat. The exact time depends on the operating characteristics of your stove. Keep the tortillas in the pan until golden brown. If the tortillas begin to swell, prick them a few times with a fork. To ensure the filling in the flatbread is baked, cover the pan with a lid.

Step 13

Step 13
Remove the tortillas from the pan and immediately brush with butter on both sides until the tortillas are soft and tender in flavor. Bon appetit!
