1

Prepare the dough using boiling water and sifted flour, mixing with a whisk initially.

2

Knead the dough by hand once it cools enough to touch, adding flour as needed until it is soft and elastic.

3

Coat the mixing bowl with vegetable oil and knead for an additional 30 seconds before covering with cling film and letting it rest for 30 minutes.

4

For the filling, mix cottage cheese with salt and one egg, and optionally add herbs or other fillings.

5

Sprinkle the work surface with flour and roll out the dough into a sausage shape, dividing it into 8 equal parts.

6

Round each piece of dough and cover with cling film to prevent drying out.

7

Roll out one piece of dough thinly, about 2-3 millimeters thick, and cut into 8 segments.

8

Pull each segment in a checkerboard pattern to form petals, pressing the center firmly.

9

Fry the formed placinta in well-heated vegetable oil over low heat until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
