How to make puff pastry
This is how puff pastry is baked in Uzbekistan. You will need flour, salt, sugar and butter.
Pour 700 grams of sifted flour into a bowl, add a teaspoon of sugar and a teaspoon of salt, and mix.
Pour in half a liter of boiling water, knead the dough. The finished dough should stand for 15 minutes.
Divide the dough into 8 equal parts. Roll out one ball of dough into a thin layer, grease with butter, sprinkle with flour.
We fold the dough into an envelope, greasing each layer with butter and sprinkling with flour.
Put the dough aside, roll out the second ball of dough, grease it with butter, sprinkle with flour, place the prepared envelope in the center, cover it with dough on both sides, grease it with butter, sprinkle with flour, and form a square.
As a result, you will get four thick flat cakes. Roll each one out again until it doubles in size.
Place the flatbread in a frying pan with butter, fry on low heat under a lid on both sides until golden brown. Grease the hot flatbreads with butter.
