How to make Potato Piroshki
- Dough Preparation
- In a bowl, combine yeast, flour, salt, vegetable oil, and water. Mix and knead until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms.
- Cover and let it rise until doubled in size.
- Filling Preparation
- Sauté finely chopped onion in olive oil until softened. Remove from heat, add chopped parsley, and mix.
- Peel and chop the potatoes, then boil them in salted water for 20-25 minutes until tender. Drain, reserving a small amount of water.
- Mash the potatoes until smooth, adding a little reserved water for a creamy consistency.
- Season with salt, pepper, paprika, and stir in the sautéed onions and parsley.
- Assembly
- Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead lightly for 1 minute to deflate.
- Divide into 10 equal pieces. Roll each into an oval shape, place filling in the center, and seal well to form piroshki.
- Frying
- Heat vegetable oil in a pan over medium-high heat.
- Fry 1-2 piroshki at a time until golden brown on all sides.
- Place on paper towels to absorb excess oil.
