Method

1

Inizia cuocendo il riso integrale con l'acqua in una pentola a fuoco medio. Porta a ebollizione, poi abbassa il fuoco e copri, lasciando cuocere per 35-40 minuti fino a quando l'acqua è assorbita.

2

Una volta cotto, aggiungi lo yogurt greco al riso e mescola bene. Aggiusta di sale e lascia raffreddare.

3

In una ciotola, mescola la farina di segale, la farina di riso e il sale. Aggiungi l'olio e acqua quanto basta per ottenere un impasto elastico.

4

Dividi l'impasto in 8 porzioni e stendile in dischi sottili.

5

Posiziona circa 2 cucchiai di ripieno di riso al centro di ciascun disco, lasciando un bordo di un cm.

6

Ripiega i bordi dell'impasto verso l'alto, pizzicando per sigillare bene il ripieno.

7

Posiziona i pasticcini su una teglia rivestita di carta da forno.

8

Sbatti l'uovo e spennella la superficie dei pasticcini.

9

Cuoci in forno preriscaldato a 200°C per 15-20 minuti, fino a doratura. Servi tiepidi.
