Preparation

Dough for the khat of the Karabakh

Despite the fact that the kyta is not a traditional dish "on its own", the recipe for its preparation is not at all complicated. For the right yeast test, you need to prepare the spoon. Trying to save time, we will take dry yeast - from this recipe kyat of Karabakh will not become worse. All the ingredients for the dough are thoroughly mixed, make sure that there are no lumps. After that, you have to put an hour in a warm place - so that it's a little bit approached.

At this time, you can make a filling. In a bowl, put finely chopped butter, fill with the necessary amount of sugar and flour, mix. In the end, you should get a kind of crumb, reminiscent of breadcrumbs. Leave it in the refrigerator for half an hour.

How to bake a kyate?

Roll the dough into a thin layer. Top out the filling for the kyate. Evenly fold the envelope so that the entire filling remains inside. After protecting the edges, put the cake on the baking tray with the seams down.

We apply a traditional pattern with a fork. In addition to aesthetics, it is of practical importance. Holes from the fork help the air to escape outward, without disturbing the appearance of the kyate. Then it should be smeared with egg yolk. There are recipes of kyat, in which the pastry is smeared with a mixture of milk and yolk. Also there is a cookie of kyata, the recipe of which is very similar to ours. The only difference is that the cold dough with stuffing is rolled up into a roll and cut into rectangles 4x5 cm.

Pie in the oven, preheated to 200 ° C for 20-25 minutes. Cookies are cooked in the same mode. Serve hot on the table.
