Sweet pies with sorrel

Of all the spring greens that delight us with their usefulness, sorrel is perhaps the most juicy and tasty. And how can you not resist baking and frying sweet pies with sorrel, since the dough can be purchased, and the inside grows in the country or is waiting for you in the hands of grandmothers at the market.

Before you start preparing sweet pies with sorrel, you need to prepare the sorrel. Thoroughly wash the leaves under running water on both sides. Do not overdo it with this procedure, because sorrel grows close to the ground, isn’t it enough to get on it while it was sitting in the garden bed! Then cut off the thick parts, they are much rougher and more sour than the leaves.

Chop the sorrel and either scald it with boiling water, or simmer it in a frying pan with a small addition of water so that the whole mass settles and becomes soft. Place the sorrel in a sieve to drain excess moisture and mix with sugar. You can, of course, wrap raw sorrel with sugar in the dough, but then the inside of the pies will be very juicy and moist, and may leak during frying or baking. There is one secret: to prevent the juice from leaking out of the inside, add a little starch to the sorrel.
