1

Wash 7 small potatoes and place them in a pot with their skins.

2

Add water to the pot and turn on the stove.

3

When the water starts to boil, reduce the heat and boil the potatoes for about 25 minutes on low heat.

4

Check if the potatoes are cooked by inserting a toothpick; if it goes in easily, they are done.

5

Remove the cooked potatoes from the stove and let them cool.

6

In a mixing bowl, add 1 pack of instant yeast, 3 tablespoons of granulated sugar, and 1 glass of warm water. Stir until the sugar dissolves.

7

Add 1 glass of warm milk, 1 tea glass of oil, and the white of 1 egg to the mixture.

8

In a separate bowl, take some of the 6 cups of flour and add 1 teaspoon of salt. Start kneading the dough, adding flour little by little until a soft dough forms that slightly sticks to the hand.

9

Cover the dough with cling film and let it ferment for 1 hour.

10

Once the potatoes are cool, peel them and place them in a large bowl.

11

Use a fork to mash the potatoes until smooth.

12

In a pan, add 4 tablespoons of oil and the mashed potatoes.

13

Add 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of red pepper powder, 1/2 teaspoon of mint, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper to the pan and fry for 2-3 minutes.

14

Remove the stuffing from the stove and let it cool.

15

Once the dough has fermented, oil the counter to prevent sticking.

16

Tear off a piece of dough, press it to expand, and place potato stuffing in the middle.

17

Squeeze the edges together to seal and flip it over to fix it.

18

Place the shaped pastries on a tray.

19

Continue shaping until all the dough is used; you should have 16-18 large pastries or more if made smaller.

20

Cover the pastries with a freezer bag to prevent drying and let them ferment in the tray for 30 minutes.

21

After 30 minutes, brush the pastries with the egg yolk and sprinkle with blue poppy seeds.

22

Bake in a preheated 200 degree oven until golden brown.

23

Once browned, remove from the oven and serve.
