How to cook Chebureki in a frying pan

Step 1

Prepare the dough: pour 200 g of flour into a deep bowl, add 300 ml of boiling water, and stir quickly. You should get a viscous and thick mass.

Step 2

Add the egg, butter, salt, sugar and vodka. Add the remaining flour and start kneading the dough.

Step 3

The dough should be smooth, glossy and uniform. Cover the bowl with cling film and leave for 30 minutes.

Step 4

Prepare the filling: add onion, herbs, salt and pepper to the minced meat. Mix well and pour in some ice water.

Step 5

Divide the dough into 11-12 equal balls (approximately 50 g each).

Step 6

Roll each ball thinly, put 1 tbsp of minced meat on each. After distributing it, pinch the edges and press them with the tines of a fork.

Step 7

Fry the chebureki in a frying pan with heated vegetable oil until they have a characteristic golden crust.

Step 8

Serve the chebureki warm.

Chebureki in a frying pan - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I substitute vodka in the dough with another ingredient?

Yes, you can replace vodka with cold water or a splash of white vinegar. Vodka helps create a flaky texture, but the substitution will still yield good results.

How can I make vegetarian chebureki?

Swap the minced meat for a mixture of sautéed mushrooms, lentils, or mashed potatoes with spices for a delicious vegetarian version.

What's the best way to store leftover chebureki?

Store cooled chebureki in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in a dry skillet or oven for best texture.

Can I freeze uncooked chebureki for later use?

Yes, assemble the chebureki but don’t fry them. Freeze on a tray, then transfer to a bag. Fry directly from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to cook.

Why is ice water added to the meat filling?

Ice water keeps the minced meat juicy during frying by creating steam pockets, preventing dryness in the cooked filling.

Can I use whole wheat flour for a healthier version?

Yes, but replace only half the flour with whole wheat to maintain dough elasticity. Full substitution may make the dough too dense.

What dipping sauces pair well with chebureki?

Try tzatziki, garlic yogurt sauce, spicy chili oil, or a simple sour cream sprinkle with fresh herbs for extra flavor.

How thin should I roll the dough for best results?

Aim for 2-3mm thickness—thin enough to crisp well but sturdy enough to hold the filling without breaking during frying.

Can I bake chebureki instead of frying?

Yes, brush with oil and bake at 200°C (400°F) until golden. Baking yields a slightly different texture but is a lighter option.

Kharcho with chicken

Total Reviews:

Usually kharcho is cooked in beef broth. But we decided to break the rules to get a slightly different, but no less tasty dish. Kharcho based on chicken will be more dietary, but in taste it will be the same famous Georgian soup, which you can easily
