Description

Lazy potato pies with cheese fried in a skillet - delicious, filling, with a minimal set of ingredients. This simple recipe for quick pies without an oven is a great snack option. You can use any hard or semi-hard cheese, and adjust the amount of salt based on the saltiness of the chosen cheese.

Fried potato pies are somewhat similar to dumplings and are prepared just as easily.

Instructions

Boil the potatoes until they are fully cooked, then mash them into a puree.
Grate the cheese finely and add it to the mashed potatoes.
Pour in the milk and add the sifted flour, baking soda, salt, and both types of pepper to taste. If the cheese is very salty, you may need less salt.

Now, mix everything thoroughly with your hands to form a uniform dough.
Shape equal-sized pies. To do this, grease your hands with vegetable oil, scoop up the mixture with a tablespoon, shape the pie, and slightly flatten it.
Place the pies in a well-heated skillet with oil and fry them on each side for 3-4 minutes, or until they develop a golden crust. Once fried, place the pies on a paper towel to remove excess oil.
Serve the potato pies with cheese hot, although they are also very tasty when cold.

Enjoy your meal!
