Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make pies from puff pastry in a frying pan? While the dough is defrosting, make the filling. I have it from stewed cabbage, but you can cook them with other fillings: apples, rice with eggs, cottage cheese, etc. Chop the cabbage and fry while stirring in a frying pan with vegetable oil until soft (about 15 minutes), the heat is moderate. Finally add tomato paste and salt and stir. Simmer until done, it took me 5 minutes.

Step 2

Step 2
How long does it take to defrost the dough? I defrosted the dough at room temperature for about 40-50 minutes. It does not require strong defrosting — as soon as the dough becomes pliable, you can start cooking with it. I have the dough in one layer. Cut the dough crosswise into strips. I got 4 strips measuring 10 by 21 centimeters.

Step 3

Step 3
Divide each strip into equal rectangles, the size of which will determine the size of the pies. I cut each strip into 3 pieces.

Step 4

Step 4
Then roll out each rectangle with a rolling pin to form a square. I have these squares 10 by 10 centimeters.

Step 5

Step 5
Place a heaping tablespoon of filling in the middle of each square.

Step 6

Step 6
Pinch the edges of the pies tightly, giving them a triangular shape. You can pinch in a regular or curly way.

Step 7

Step 7
Heat a frying pan with vegetable oil, turn the heat to slightly below medium. Place the dough pieces in a frying pan and fry them on one side until golden brown. It took me 3-4 minutes. You focus on your stove.

Step 8

Step 8
Turn the pies over to the other side and fry them until done. I fried for 2-3 minutes. On average, it took me 5-7 minutes for one serving of pies. In total, from this amount of dough I got 12 pies, which I fried in three steps, since I could fit 4 pies in the pan at a time. I immediately put the finished pies on a plate, since they turned out not greasy and did not require a paper towel.
