Chebureks on a dry pan (yantyk)

Chebureks – they are very tasty, but also very caloric, you can't eat much! And I love them! And once my friend Sevila told me that Crimean Tatars cook chebureks on a dry frying pan, then they turn out less fatty, because they do not float in boiling oil, and this makes them healthier.

I confess that there are no proportions of the dough as such, I mixed the dough «by eye» but everything is simple, the main thing is to get the desired soft and elastic consistency. Shall we?

Pour water into the mince (it will add juiciness to the stuffing) and mix everything together.

Pinch off a small piece of dough and roll out thinly. Spread the filling in a semicircle on one side of the dough, about 1cm from the edge.

I find it convenient to go over the edge with a saucer bezel, it sticks the edges together and trims off the excess.

Fry the chebureks on both sides  in a dry skillet over medium heat, covered with a lid, until browned.
