How to cook

  1. To make the Chebureky: In a medium bowl, grate ½ of the yellow onion. Mix in the ground beef, spice mix, and water. Theconsistency should be similar to thin yogurt. This will ensure your Chebureky are very moist!
  2. In a separate bowl, grate the mozzarella cheese.
  3. Chop the dill and remaining cilantro.
  4. Mix together the mozzarella, ricotta cheese, and chopped herbs. These are the fillings.
  5. To shape the Chebureky, pinch a piece of dough, slightly smaller than a tennis ball, and roll out thinly.
  6. Using a 7-8 inch plate as a guide, cut a circle. Repeat with the remaining dough.
  7. Working with one dough circle at a time, place a heaping tablespoon of the filling over half of the dough, spreading evenly.
  8. Leave a 1/2 inch clean border around the filling. Fold the dough over, forming a half-moon, and press the edges to seal. You can use a fork to crimp and seal.
  9. Heat about 1/2 inch of canola oil in a frying pan until hot. Fry the chebureky in the hot oil for 3-4 minutes per side. Make sure the oil is very hot; otherwise, your chebureky will be too greasy.
  10. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate to drain.
  11. Serve immediately with the Ajika sauce. Enjoy!
