Ingredients
Product | amount |
Sour milk or kefir | 450 ml |
Egg | 2 pcs. |
Flour | 1 kg |
Sugar | 2 tbsp. l |
Soda | 1 tsp |
Salt | 1 tsp |
Vegetable oil | 340 g |
Step cooking
- We cook baursaki without using yeast. To do this, you need to pour 450 sour milk or kefir into a deep bowl. Sour-milk product should be at room temperature.
- In kefir add 2 tbsp. l sugar and 1 tsp. soda and salt. Mix all the ingredients thoroughly with a tablespoon. In the process of mixing, the soda immediately begins to quench.
- Add 2 chicken eggs and 40 g of vegetable oil to the kefir mixture, re-mixing.
- Using a sieve, sift a kilogram of flour and add it to kefir.
- Actively beat the dough first with a tablespoon in a bowl, then continue to knead with your hands until it becomes elastic and soft.
- We leave the finished dough in a deep bowl and cover with cling film. Leave the dough to infuse for 30 minutes.
- After half an hour we take out the dough and divide it into 2 parts. We roll out one part using a rolling pin. The thickness of the rolled dough should not be less than 1 cm, optimally - 1.5 cm.
- We cut the rolled dough into any shapes, it is best to cut it into squares.
- We put the stewpan on the fire, pouring 300 g of vegetable oil into it. In a hot oil, put a few pieces of dough, frying for several minutes. It is important to turn the baursaki with a slotted spoon to get a uniform golden hue.
- Similarly, roll and cut into pieces another part of the dough, and fry the baursaki in a large amount of vegetable oil. If you are afraid that the dessert will turn out to be very greasy, it is recommended that you first put them on a plate with a paper towel so that the excess fat is absorbed.
- We lay the finished baursaks on a beautiful dish and serve for tea. It is possible to use the Kazakh dessert by dipping in honey or any jam to your liking. It is also possible to sprinkle a little sugar powder on top of the baursaki.
