Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 2 large Eggs
- 1.5 cups Mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 0.5 pound Ground beef
- 1 small, finely chopped Onion
- 2 cloves, minced Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 cup Avocado or olive oil
Instructions
Prepare the dough by melting the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat on high for about 1 minute, stir, and then heat for another 30 seconds until smooth.
In a mixing bowl, combine the melted cheese mixture with almond flour and eggs. Mix until it forms a smooth but slightly sticky dough. You may need to knead it with your hands.
Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 15 minutes to firm up.
While the dough is chilling, prepare the filling. Heat a frying pan over medium heat, add ground beef, onion, and garlic, and cook until the beef is no longer pink and the onions are translucent.
Season the beef mixture with salt, black pepper, and paprika. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Divide the chilled dough into 4 equal portions. Roll out each piece between two sheets of parchment paper into a thin circle, about 6-7 inches in diameter.
Place a generous scoop of the meat filling on one half of each circle, leaving a border around the edge. Fold the dough over and press the edges together, crimping them with a fork to seal.
In a large skillet, heat avocado or olive oil over medium-high heat. Fry the chebureks, one or two at a time, until golden brown on each side, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Remove with a slotted spatula and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve hot and enjoy your delicious Low Carb Cheburek!
