Potato gin is an unusual stuffed flatbread that is worth making as a quick snack. They always turn out very soft, tasty, and they are easy and fairly quick to cook. It is advisable to make the dough strictly according to this recipe, so that everything comes out for sure. And it is best to fry them in a pan, although many bake them in the oven. But, in my opinion, this is not worth doing, because they will not come out as soft, airy and tasty to taste.
When choosing flour for kneading dough, you should purchase the one that is of the highest grade. Otherwise, the dough may fail and not come out. It will stick to your hands and be not entirely successful in consistency. The filling, as the name suggests, is mashed potatoes. Grated cheese is necessarily added to it, when choosing it, you can take cheese, and smooth, and hard. In general, use the one you like best.
