Dolagach

Ingredients:

flour, white cheese, yeast, eggs, salt, sugar, water

 

Method:

Sift the flour and make a well in it. Dilute the yeast in warm water and pour into the well. Season with salt. Knead the dough, divide into balls and knead them in turn for a while. Leave them aside to rise. Roll out each ball into a separate, not very thin sheet. Grease the sheets with melted butter and sprinkle with white cheese. Rumple each sheet instead of rolling it up, and shape into a loose snail shape. Arrange the sheets in a baking dish greased with butter one round the other. Beat 4 eggs with a little water. Sprinkle the dolgach with sugar, top with butter and the beaten eggs. Bake at 180C for about 40–50 minutes.

butter, oil, flour, 1 bowl sugar, salt

In a pan, melt the butter with the oil. Add several tbsp. of flour and stir until the flour changes color. Add salt. Gradually pour in warm water while stirring constantly to prevent lumps.
