60 minutes
Kefir envelopes with cheese are a cozy and simple dish of Russian cuisine that captivates with its tenderness and appetizing aroma. The dough is based on kefir, giving it airiness and a slight sourness. Butter makes the texture even softer, while grated cheese adds a rich flavor and pleasant stretchiness. The filling is complemented by herbs and spices, creating a harmonious balance of flavors. The envelopes are fried in a pan until golden brown, becoming crispy on the outside and stretchy on the inside. They can be served hot as a main dish or as an appetizer with soups and tea. The simplicity of preparation makes this recipe accessible even for novice cooks, while its taste remains invariably cozy and homely.
