Ingredients

• Sour cream: 100 g
• Salt: pinch
• Wheat flour: 1.5 glass
• Chicken egg: 1 pc
• Powdered sugar: to taste

Cooking steps

1. Put sour cream in a bowl, add an egg, and mix.

   Required ingredients:

   • Sour cream: 100 g
   • Chicken egg: 1 piece

2. Add flour and salt to the mixture and knead a thick dough.

   Required ingredients:

   • Wheat flour: 1.5 glass
   • Salt:  pinch

3. Roll out the dough into a thin sheet (like for homemade noodles), cut into wide strips about 8 cm long. Make a longitudinal cut along the entire length in the middle of the strips, but do not cut through the edges.

4. Bend the strip, insert one end into the slot, and pull it while straightening the strip — this will twist the separated parts of the strip and form a three-dimensional shaped product.

5. Fry the prepared shaped blanks in vegetable oil, then drain in a colander to let the oil drip off.

6. Place on a plate and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
