Kutabs in a frying pan

Step-by-step recipe

Step 1:

Mix flour and salt in a bowl. Add warm water and 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil.

Step 2:

Knead the dough, cover with film and set aside for 15-20 minutes.

Step 3:

Finely chop the spinach and mint.

Step 4:

Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a frying pan. Chop the onion and fry it in the pan until golden brown.

Step 5:

Add the onion to the bowl with the spinach, season with salt and pepper. Add the paprika and stir.

Step 6:

Sprinkle flour on a flat surface and cut the dough into about 25 small pieces.

Step 7:

Roll the resulting pieces into balls and cover with film.

Step 8:

Roll out the dough ball very thinly, so that it is larger than the palm of your hand.

Step 9:

Place the filling on the dough and fold it over itself like a book. Seal the edges and carefully trim off any excess, preferably with a decorative knife.

Step 10:

Cook in a dry frying pan on each side until golden brown.

Step 11:

Place new portions in the pan, one on top of the other, grease with oil and cover with a lid.

Cooking tips

For green stuffing, any greens and herbs can be used - spinach, dill, parsley, sorrel, tarragon, basil, tarragon, green onions and cilantro.

When rolling out the dough, use less flour, otherwise it will burn and smoke when frying.

If the dough has dried out a little and the edges do not seal well, you need to moisten them with a slightly beaten egg or water.
