DOUGH INGREDIENTS:
• 1Kg flour;
• 640ml milk;
• 14g dry yeast;
• 1 teaspoon salt;
• 50ml oil;
• 50g melted butter;
• 1 egg.
CHEESE FILLING INGREDIENTS:
• 200g telemea cheese;
• 100g cottage cheese;
• 5 green onion stalks;
• 1 bunch dill.

POTATO FILLING INGREDIENTS:
• 3 medium boiled potatoes;
• 1/2 teaspoon salt;
• 150g cheese/mozzarella.
METHOD OF PREPARATION:
1. In a bowl, I put the lukewarm milk, the yeast and 4 generous tablespoons of flour. I mixed very well and left the composition on the kitchen counter (in a warm place) for 15 minutes.
2. I put the flour in a bowl, and in it I made a hole in which I put the composition obtained earlier and the egg.
3. I mixed by hand until the dough began to form. I added the oil and salt and started kneading.
4. When the oil was incorporated, I added the melted and cooled butter. I kneaded until the butter was incorporated and then transferred the dough to the work surface.
5. I kneaded until I obtained a non-sticky dough.
6. I transferred it to an oiled bowl, covered it and left it to rise until it tripled in volume (about an hour and a half in a warm place).
7. In the meantime, I prepared the fillings.
8. For the potato filling: I mixed the mashed potatoes with salt and grated cheese.
9. For the cheese filling: I mixed the finely chopped onion, chopped dill, grated cheese and grated cheese.
10. I transferred the dough to the work surface, divided it into 15 equal pieces which I shaped into balls.
11. I covered them with cling film and a towel and left them to rise for another 15 minutes.
12. I spread them out a little, put 2-3 tablespoons of a mixture on each, sealed them and gently spread them with a rolling pin.
13. I fried them nicely on both sides in a pan over medium heat greased with oil, with a lid on top.
14. I continued this process until I finished all the pitas. I kept them in a kitchen towel until I baked them all.
Good appetite!
