Cheese Bag Ingredients
Method
Cheese Bag Directions
Prepare the Dough
In a large bowl, mix together the flour and salt. In a separate bowl, combine water and olive oil. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.
Knead the Dough
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until smooth. Cover with a cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.
Roll Out the Dough
After resting, divide the dough into small portions. Roll each portion into a flat circle about 1/8 inch thick.
Add Cheese Filling
On one half of each circle, sprinkle shredded cheese, garlic powder, black pepper, and paprika to taste. Fold the dough over to create a half-moon shape and seal the edges by pressing with a fork.
Cook the Cheese Bags
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook each cheese bag for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Serve
Remove from skillet and let cool slightly. Serve warm as a delicious snack or appetizer.
