Advices
Advice
If you're using store-bought spice mixes, always read the ingredients. Many already contain salt, so be careful not to oversalt your dish.
Preparation
Step 1
For the filling, you can use any type of meat - pork, beef, or chicken. I use beef. Grind the meat or use store-bought ground meat.
Step 2
For the dough, mix kefir with baking soda, sugar, and salt. Gradually add sifted flour, kneading the dough. Don't add all the flour at once; you may need a bit more or less.
Step 3
The dough should be soft, elastic, and not sticky. Let it rest for a while.
Step 4
Meanwhile, prepare the filling. Peel and rinse the onion under cold water, then finely chop it. Add the onion to the meat. Season with salt and your favorite spices. Mix everything until uniform.
Step 5
Divide the dough into 6 equal parts.
Step 6
Roll each part into a flat round. Place some filling in the center, then fold the edges over to enclose it.
Step 7
Flip seam-side down and gently roll out into a flatbread again. Try not to tear the dough - meat juice will leak during frying. Repeat for all flatbreads.
Step 8
Fry the flatbreads in a dry skillet for 3-4 minutes on each side over medium heat. Don't use high heat - they need to cook through without burning.
Step 9
The cooked flatbreads should be golden and appetizing. Remove from skillet and immediately brush with butter while hot. The butter melts into the dough for a rich taste.
Step 10
Stack the flatbreads. Khychins are ready! They're delicious both warm and cold. Garnish with fresh herbs and serve. Enjoy!
