Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon Active dry yeast
- 150 milliliters Warm water
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 100 grams Low-fat cottage cheese
- 100 grams Spinach, cooked and finely chopped
- 1 medium-sized Carrot, grated
- 1 clove Garlic, minced
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 large Egg (for egg wash, optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour, active dry yeast, and salt.
Add warm water and olive oil to the dry mixture. Mix until a soft dough forms, then knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise for 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
While the dough rises, prepare the filling: In a mixing bowl, combine cooked and finely chopped spinach, grated carrot, low-fat cottage cheese, minced garlic, black pepper, and paprika. Mix well and set aside.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release air. Divide it into 8 equal portions.
On a floured surface, roll out each portion into a small disc. Place a spoonful of the vegetable filling in the center of each disc, then fold the edges over the filling to seal it, forming a ball.
Place the stuffed rolls seam-side down on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Let them rest for an additional 15 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). If desired, brush the tops of the rolls with beaten egg for a glossy finish.
Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow them to cool slightly. Serve warm or at room temperature.
