However, few people know that the real - the right chebureks - can cook only in their historical homeland, in the Crimea. Crimean Tatars were the first to come up with this dish, made it, and helped spread throughout the countries of Central Asia, and then to the regions of central Russia.

But this only at first glance it seems that everyone knows how to make chebureks correctly. Many novice cooks believe that there can be no difficulties in the simple process of preparing fresh dough or meat fillings, which will later make a fried pie. Recipes of such foods have been tested for centuries and many generations of cooks - but this does not mean at all that we have studied all the subtleties of creating a cheburek in full. No, this delicacy has many secrets that make it possible to consider it a real miracle, experiencing the level of skill of the cook, his patience and diligence.
Naturally, there is more than one recipe for chebureks in the world - and the difference in their preparation lies in some special secrets that make this dish unique, unlike anything else. The preparation of the filling and the products for it, the ingredients for the dough and the methods of kneading it, as well as the different shape of the pastry and methods of frying it, can be different. However, some points remain unchanged - the need to use a large amount of vegetable oil for frying, the use of an electric deep fat fryer as utensils for cooking, which will allow you to cook pasties at the optimum temperature, frying them evenly and for a short time.
If you want to please your family or friends with this unusual dish, remember: you must follow the recipe exactly. For example, a cheburek recipe from choux pastry suggests taking: minced meat - best prepared, carefully mixed with finely chopped onions, salt and spices (500 gr.), Flour (800 gr.), Salt (15 gr.). To begin with, you should prepare the dough - stir in hot water (350 ml.) A little less than half a serving of flour, sprinkle with salt and wait until the water starts to cool. After that, you can add the remaining flour to the mixture and knead the dough thoroughly. Next, divide the mass into several pieces and thoroughly roll out until you get thin wide cakes. After this, the recipe for chebureks involves preparing the filling, for which pour in the minced meat, well salted, mixed with onions and spices, water (100 ml.) And mix thoroughly.
The next stage of preparation is the final assembly of the product. On one part of a thin cake, you can put a little filling (30-40 g each) and gently smooth it, then fold a piece of dough in half, squeeze the edges, pre-lubricating them with cold water or egg white, and trim the excess dough with a special knife. If you use this recipe for pasties, then remember that the basis for them is very thin, so their preparation does not take too much time. Such food should be dipped in well-heated vegetable oil for several minutes - just enough so that the cheburek on both sides is browned and covered with a delicate golden crust, crispy and delicious. Next, fragrant pies can be put on a paper napkin to rid them of excess oil, and serve hot.
