Preparation
Step 1
Rinse and sort the strawberries, then lay them on a paper towel and let them dry completely. You can use a heat-resistant sugar substitute if desired.
Step 2
For the dough: In a mixing bowl, pour warm water, crack in the egg, and add fresh yeast, sugar, and salt. Pour in vegetable oil and mix until smooth.
Step 3
Gradually add sifted flour and knead into a soft, elastic dough. The amount of flour may vary. Sifting helps remove impurities and adds air for fluffier baked goods.
Step 4
Shape the dough into a ball, place it in a deep bowl, and set in a warm place. Let it rise until doubled or tripled in size.
Step 5
Dust your work surface with flour, turn out the risen dough, and divide it into equal portions. Shape each into a ball, cover, and let rest for 10 minutes. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 6
For the filling: Remove strawberry stems, cut into pieces, and place in a bowl. Add starch and mix.
Step 7
Roll each dough ball into a flat round. Add the strawberry filling and sprinkle with sugar. Add sugar right before shaping to prevent excess juice from leaking out.
Step 8
Grease a baking tray or line it with a baking mat. Place the pies spaced apart, cover, and let rise for another 10–15 minutes. Beat an egg with a fork and brush the tops.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 20–25 minutes, until golden brown. Time may vary depending on your oven. Once baked, brush with oil and cover with a towel to soften slightly.
Step 10
Serve and enjoy!
