An original recipe for chebureks with mashed potatoes as a filling and a little-known technique for obtaining crispy dough with pimples. Total cooking time is 90 minutes.
Secrets. If you use still mineral water instead of regular water, the dough will be more tender. The addition of vodka gives a characteristic crunch; after heat treatment, the alcohol completely evaporates. Sugar is responsible for the golden brown crust during frying, and thanks to sunflower oil, “signature” bubbles will appear on the pasties. Onions make the potato filling more flavorful and juicier.
Ingredients for 6 pieces:
- wheat flour - 4 cups;
- potatoes – 1 kg;
- onions – 1 piece (medium);
- water – 1.5 cups;
- vodka – 1 teaspoon (optional);
- sugar – 1 teaspoon (without a slide);
- vegetable oil – 1 cup;
- salt – one and a half teaspoons;
- ground black pepper - to taste.
Recipe for chebureks with potatoes
1. Mix 8 tablespoons of sunflower oil, sugar and salt in a deep bowl for preparing the dough. Gradually add sifted wheat flour.
2. Add water and vodka. Knead the pastry dough until it becomes stiff and elastic. Then roll into one ball, wrap with cling film and leave in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
The dough should be elastic 3. Wash the potatoes, peel them, cut them into large pieces and boil until tender in lightly salted water.
4. Peel the onion, chop and grind in a blender or meat grinder.
5. Mash the potatoes, add onion and ground black pepper. Stir until smooth.
6. Sprinkle the work surface with flour. Roll out the dough into a thin layer (approximately 3-4 mm). Using a metal lid or plate, cut out circles with a diameter of 15-20 cm from the dough.
The circles must turn out even, otherwise you won’t be able to make a potato cheburek properly!
7. Place potato and onion filling on one part of each piece, as shown in the photo. Cover the top with the other half of the dough.
Leave a little space around the edge of the filled part to make it easier to formulate the workpiece. 8. Pinch the edges of each cheburek with your fingers, then make notches along the edges with a fork so that the filling holds better and does not fall out.
9. Heat a deep frying pan with vegetable oil. Fry the pasties over medium heat on both sides until cooked (a golden crust appears). It takes approximately 3-5 minutes.
Chebureks should literally float in boiling oil! 10. Place the finished pasties with potatoes on a paper napkin and leave for 2-3 minutes to remove excess oil.
Today's episode is dedicated to the Lenten menu. We invite you to prepare delicious pasties with potatoes and mushrooms. Using this dough recipe as a basis, lean chebureks can be prepared with different fillings: cabbage, beans, herbs...
Chebureks with potatoes and mushrooms
If you want your chebureks to be airy, bubbly, and crunchy, and not stretchy (at least when hot), you should strictly adhere to three rules.
1. The dough for the blanks needs to be rolled out very, very thin. The limit is when it begins to shine through in places (then there is a risk that the cheburek will burst during frying, the filling will lose its juice, and the oil will spoil as a result).
2. Don't skimp on the butter. The pies should not lie at the bottom of the cauldron or frying pan, but should float freely.
3. The oil should be well heated, but not burn.
Ingredients:
For the test:
- 100 ml water,
- 0.5 tsp salt,
- 1 tsp. vegetable oil,
- 1 tbsp. flour (250 ml);
For filling:
- 1 tbsp. mashed potatoes,
- 5-6 young champignons,
- bulb,
- vegetable oil.
Cooking process:
Boil the champignons in salted water for 5 minutes. Fry the onion in oil and add chopped mushrooms to it. Fry the dressing together with the mushrooms a little more so that the champignons do not have time to dry out.
Knead a stiff dough. To do this, first add ¾ of the flour.
Then, adding the remaining flour, knead the dough intensively with your hands.
Divide it into 6 parts and roll out thin cakes. Instead of flour, so that the dough does not stick to the table and to the rolling pin, use vegetable oil (because flour stuck to the dough will remain in the oil during frying and this will quickly darken it and begin to taste bitter).
Place the filling on one half of the circle (in the center), mold the edges of the cake tightly, trim off the excess dough, and then make a “pigtail” on the edge.
Now comes the most interesting part. As mentioned above, there should be a lot of oil for frying and it needs to be hot enough. Check the temperature by throwing a small piece of dough into the oil - if the liquid boils violently around it, you can lower the batch of dough.
In order for the surface of the chebureks to become covered with delicious bubbles, they need to be poured on top with boiling oil from a cauldron.
This causes them to first swell and then bubble.
Remove the finished pies, fried on both sides, onto a paper towel and then transfer to a plate.

Option 1: Chebureks with potatoes - classic recipe
Chebureks are one of the traditional types of baked goods in the East. They put a variety of fillings. In our selection of recipes, we will look at options for preparing pasties with potatoes, we will prepare them in different ways, and add additional ingredients. We will prepare the dough and filling ourselves. There is nothing better than homemade baked goods, and you will see this.
Ingredients:
- 4 cups wheat flour;
- 1 dessert spoon of granulated sugar;
- 1 kg of potatoes;
- 1.25 cups of growing oil;
- 1.5 dessert spoons of edible salt;
- 1.5 glass of water;
- 1 large onion;
- 1 dessert spoon of vodka.
Step-by-step recipe for chebureks with potatoes
To make the dough you will need a large container. First, pour eight tablespoons of refined vegetable oil, add granulated sugar and table salt. Stir until smooth. For convenience, we will use a mixer.
Add flour through a sifter. This is very convenient, you can add it in small portions, and the flour is immediately sifted, saturated with oxygen, and the dough turns out right.
Pour water a little at a time and process the dough with a mixer, pour in vodka and bring it to a stiff and at the same time elastic mass.
Note to the hostess: You probably have a question, why is vodka added to the dough? After introducing it and proofing the dough, the finished pasties will turn out pimply with bubbles.
Gather the dough into a bun, wrap in cling film and place in the refrigerator for half an hour.
Now we will need kitchen appliances again. Peel the onion, cut into several large pieces and pass through a blender.
The potatoes need to be peeled, rinsed and cut into cubes - this will cook them faster. Salt the water after boiling and cook for fifteen to twenty minutes.
Then you need to drain the water, leave a little for juiciness, mash the potatoes with a masher and add chopped onion.
Add black pepper and salt at your discretion and stir.
Let's start forming the chebureks. Remove the dough from the refrigerator, unroll it, and place it on a large cutting board dusted with flour.
Cut the dough into equal small pieces.
Roll out each portion of dough into a thin circle. Place a portion of filling in the center. Now we fold the dough in half - we get a cheburek.
Seal the edges and go through it with a figured knife - real chebureks have a carved edge.
If you don’t have a figured knife, it’s okay. You can simply cut it with a knife or carefully form a spiral of dough along the edge; when frying, the dough will still rise a little, and the pasties will turn out beautiful.
We will fry the chebureks in a frying pan with a large amount of vegetable oil. The surface should be well heated, and the oil too.
Brown the pasties on both sides and place on thick paper towels to remove excess oil.
Afterwards, transfer the beautiful, rosy and tasty pasties to a common plate and serve.

Boil the specified amount of water and pour boiling water into the flour mixture, process with a mixer until smooth.
Dust your work surface with flour and place the dough there. Continue kneading, kneading with your hands. We need the lump to stop sticking to our hands.
So, we have a soft, elastic bun. Place it in a bowl, cover with a damp towel to dry the dough, and prepare the filling.
Grate the peeled and washed potatoes on a coarse grater. Drain the resulting juice - the filling should not be liquid.
Wash the dill, chop finely and add to the potatoes. Sprinkle with black pepper and salt to taste and stir.
Transfer the dough ball to a work surface sprinkled with flour. Roll it out into one large thick sausage and cut it into equal pieces.
Roll each part into a thin circle and place the filling on one side, close with the other part of the dough and seal the edges tightly.
We make a beautiful rim along the edge. Form all the pasties.
We cover the baking sheet with parchment and lay out our neat pasties. Break the egg, separate the yolk and shake it. Lubricate each cheburek with a silicone brush and then sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Preheat the oven to 180 C and place a baking sheet there. Bake until lightly browned for about half an hour and remove. Focus on the power of your oven.
