- Difficulty: Medium
- Diets: Dairy-free

Ingredients
- 33 g Water, lukewarm
- 0.6 g Yeast, active dry
- 1 g Sugar
- 1 g Salt
- 15 g Vegetable oil (in the dough and for deep-frying)
- 55 g Flour, all-purpose
- 10 g Rice, white, long-grain
- 15 g Onions, raw
- 40 g Beef, ground, 85% lean, raw
- 0.1 g White pepper
Method
- Dissolve the yeast and sugar in the lukewarm water (about 37°C), add a spoonful of the oil and half the salt, then work in the flour and knead for 5 minutes to a smooth, soft dough. Cover and let it rise for 30 minutes.
- Cook the rice in boiling water for 12-15 minutes until tender, then drain.

- Roll the dough out thinly into a round about 20 cm across. Spread the filling over one half, leaving a 1 cm edge, fold the other half over and press the edges firmly together.
- Heat the rest of the oil in a deep pan to 175°C and fry the lörtsy for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown.
- Drain on kitchen paper and eat warm.
