1

Use a rolling pin to flatten the slices of bread until they are thin and not porous.

4

Mix everything together until well combined and smooth.

5

Grease the edges of the bread slices with fresh egg for stickiness.

Add the filling to the center of each slice, then fold and press the edges with a fork to seal.

Repeat the process until all slices are filled and sealed.

Heat a frying pan over medium heat and arrange the filled bread slices in the pan.

9

Carefully monitor the bread, flipping frequently to ensure even browning and prevent burning.
