Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1

Prepare the necessary ingredients.

Step 2

Dissolve the yeast in 250 ml of warm water with sugar, add half of the flour, mix well, cover, and let it rest for 15 minutes.

Step 3

Then add a teaspoon of salt and the remaining flour, and knead the dough. Finally, add a tablespoon of vegetable oil to incorporate all the flour. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it, and let it rise in a warm place for 20 minutes.

Step 4

Mix the ground meat with the chopped onion, salt, and pepper. If the mixture is too dry, add 1-2 tablespoons of water. Beat the mixed meat, just like you would for making patties.

Step 5

Knead the dough, greasing your hands with vegetable oil, and let it rise again. This will take another 20 minutes.

Step 6

Divide the dough into ten equal pieces of 60 grams each and roll them into balls.

Step 7

Roll the ball of dough into a thick pancake, and carefully place the filling in the center. Pinch the edges of the dough together, leaving a small opening at the top.

Step 8

Fry the belyashi in vegetable oil using a shallow frying method. First, heat a sufficient amount of oil in a pan.

Step 9

Place the meat pies in the oil with the opening side down, and fry over medium heat until golden brown.

Step 10

Then gently flip it over; the oil may splatter.

Step 11

Remove the cooked belyashi onto paper to drain excess grease.

Step 12

Serve.
