Shelpek

Method 7 steps

1. 1

   Mix the kefir with the bicarbonate and leave it five minutes; the mixture foams.

2. 2

   Add the egg, sugar, salt and melted butter and stir until even.

3. 3

   Work in the flour a little at a time and knead a soft dough that stays slightly tacky.

4. 4

   Cover it with a cloth and rest it half an hour at room temperature.

5. 5

   Divide it into seven balls and roll each into a thin twenty-centimetre round.

6. 6

   Prick each round in several places with a fork so it does not balloon in one bubble.

7. 7

   Fry them in hot oil a minute a side, to golden spots, and drain them on paper.
