To do this, the pies are cooled, placed in an airtight bag and sent to the freezer. At the right time, it remains only to heat the frozen product in the microwave, freeing it from the bag.
• If you use butter, not flour, to cut the dough, then when frying in the room there will be much less burning, the fat will be transparent and nothing will stick to the finished product.
