Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
Dissolve the yeast in warm milk with sugar (1 tsp), let it foam. Sift the flour and salt in a heap, make a well, pour in the yeast mixture, add matsoni and melted butter, beat in the egg and start kneading the dough.

Step 2

Step 2
As you knead, add vegetable oil to the dough. You can add more flour. The dough should be soft, elastic, and not sticky to your hands. Let it rise in a warm place for 2 hours. During this time, knead once.

Step 3

Step 3
Cut the meat into very small pieces with a sharp knife, lard and onion into small cubes, garlic into slices. Mix well, add salt and pepper, add the rest of the spices and adjika, mix everything with your hands and leave for 30 minutes.

Step 4

Step 4
On a board sprinkled with flour, divide the dough into equal pieces — about 200 g each, and roll into small round cakes. Place enough filling in the middle of each flatbread so that the pieces of meat lie in one layer.

Step 5

Step 5
Gather the edges of the flatbread together, pinch, place on a baking sheet, seam side down, and pierce a hole in the center in the top layer.

Step 6

Step 6
Bake in a preheated oven to 180-200 degrees, about 20 minutes. When the crust is browned, place the finished kubdari on a linen towel, brush with melted butter and cover. Our kubdari must “rest” for about 15 minutes and let’s begin... Yum-Yam!
