Avar Khychyn

Method

Mix flour with salt and 50g melted butter, then gradually add water to form a soft dough and rest for 30 minutes. Boil potatoes until tender, then mash with 25g butter, salt and pepper. Finely chop onions and fry in 25g butter until golden, then combine with mashed potatoes and crumbled cheese. Divide dough into 4 equal pieces and roll each thinly on a floured surface. Place a quarter of the potato-cheese mixture on one half of each dough circle, fold over to create a half-moon, and seal the edges firmly. Heat remaining butter in a large frying pan and fry each khychyn for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. Serve hot with additional melted butter drizzled over the top.
