3. Depending on the quality of the flour, you may need more or less than what is stated in the recipe. Knead first with a spoon, then with your hands, knead the dough for 7-10 minutes, until it becomes homogeneous and does not stick to your hands. We cover the bowl with the dough with a clean napkin and put it in a warm place for 40-60 minutes, until it has increased by 2.5 times. While the dough is rising, let's prepare the filling.
4. Peel the potatoes and boil until tender in salted water. Fry the mushrooms in vegetable oil, at the end add seasoning for potatoes and vegetables, if necessary, add a little salt and pepper. We crush the finished potatoes, adding potato broth to it. Add mushrooms to mashed potatoes and mix - the filling is ready.
5. Knead the risen dough again, put it on the work surface, roll it out and form a sausage. We will cut off small pieces from the sausage.
