Preparation time: 30 minutes Rising time: 1 hour Frying time: 20 minutes Total: approximately 1 hour and 50 minutes Number of servings: 8 pies Ingredients For the dough: - 500 g wheat flour - 25 g fresh yeast - 3 tablespoons granulated sugar - 1 tablespoon vanilla powdered sugar - Zest of one lemon (without the white part) - 220 ml milk - 2 eggs (the yolks will be used in the dough, while the whites are kept) - 30 g butter - 2 tablespoons oil (plus oil for frying) For the filling: - 300 g sweet cow cheese - 2 whole eggs - 2 tablespoons granulated sugar - 1 tablespoon vanilla sugar - Bottle of rum essence - Bottle of vanilla essence - 100-150 g raisins Step-by-Step Instructions 1. Preparing the dough: In a large bowl, add the flour and make a well in the middle. Here you will add the crumbled yeast along with a teaspoon of sugar. Gradually pour in 50 ml of warm water, stirring gently to activate the yeast. Cover the bowl with a clean towel and let it rise for 15 minutes. 2. Heating the milk: Meanwhile, in a small pot, heat the milk. Add the granulated sugar, vanilla sugar, and lemon zest, stirring gently until the sugar is completely dissolved. This combination will give the dough a pleasant aroma and enriched flavor. 3. Mixing the ingredients: Once the yeast has risen, add the egg yolks and the strained warm milk into the bowl with the flour. Start kneading the dough, then add the melted butter and warm oil. Continue kneading for about 20 minutes until the dough is elastic and smooth. 4. Let the dough rise: Cover the bowl with a towel and let it rise in a warm place for one hour, until it doubles in volume. 5. Preparing the filling: In another bowl, mix the sweet cow cheese with the whole eggs, granulated sugar, vanilla sugar, rum and vanilla essences, and raisins. If the filling is too liquid, add two tablespoons of vanilla pudding powder to give it a better consistency. 6. Forming the pies: After the dough has risen, take it and form a long roll which you will cut into 8 equal pieces. Each piece should be rolled out into a square. On the edges, brush with egg white, then place a tablespoon of filling in the center. Fold the opposite corners of the square to form the pies. 7. Frying the pies: In a deep pan, heat the oil over medium heat. When it is hot enough, add the pies and cover the pan with a lid. Fry them for 5-7 minutes on each side or until they become golden and crispy. 8. Serving: After removing them from the pan, sprinkle powdered sugar on top. These pies are delicious both warm and at room temperature, and they disappear quickly from the plate, as they say. Practical Tips - Choosing the cheese: Choose quality sweet cow cheese, as it will significantly influence the final taste of the filling. You can also use a combination of cow cheese and ricotta for a creamier texture. - Pleasant raisins: If you don't like raisins, you can opt for other ingredients such as dried cranberries or chopped nuts. - Kneading: Don't skip the kneading stage - this is essential for achieving a fluffy dough. If you have a food processor, it can make the work easier. Variations - Chocolate filling: Replace the cheese with melted chocolate filling and nuts for a more decadent version. - Citrus flavor: Add a little orange essence to the filling for a slightly citrusy and fresh taste. Recommended Combinations These fried poale-n brâu pies go perfectly with a cup of fragrant tea or a glass of cold milk. You can also try serving them alongside vanilla ice cream for a special dessert. Nutritional Benefits Fried poale-n brâu pies offer a combination of carbohydrates from the flour, proteins from the cheese and eggs, as well as healthy fats from the butter and oil.
