👨🍳 조리법
- 1
Prepare the dough: Whisk together flour and salt in a large bowl. Make a well in the center and crack in the egg. Gradually mix in the flour to form a shaggy dough. Knead on a lightly floured surface for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover and let rest for 15 minutes.

Assemble the virtinukai: Roll out the dough thinly on a floured surface. Cut into squares or circles (about 3 inches). Place a spoonful of cheese filling in the center of each piece. Fold the dough over to create a triangle or half-moon shape, sealing the edges firmly by pinching or using a fork.

Boil the virtinukai: Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Carefully drop the virtinukai into the boiling water in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until they float to the surface. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain well.

Pan-fry (optional): Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the boiled virtinukai and fry for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and slightly crispy.

Serve: Serve the virtinukai warm, topped with a dollop of sour cream and a spoonful of jam or fruit preserves.
