For the filling, remove the hard stems from the greens and finely chop the leaves. Finely chop the green onion. Heat a little butter in a frying pan and fry the herbs and onions in it over low heat, 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat, salt and pepper.
Step 2
For the dough, grate the cheese on a fine grater. Set aside about a quarter for the filling. Add soda, salt and sugar to kefir, mix.
Step 3
Pour the sifted flour and grated cheese into kefir, knead the dough. Add vegetable oil, knead until smooth. Cover with cling film and let rest in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes.

Pour the reserved cheese into the cooled filling. Divide the dough into equal parts weighing about 40 g. Roll each piece into a cake, sprinkle with herbs, fold in half, pinch the edges and gently roll again.
