Dough Preparation
- In a large mixing bowl, combine one egg, sugar, and salt. Gradually stir in warm milk and vegetable oil, followed by the sifted all-purpose flour and instant yeast. Mix until the dough starts to come together, then knead for 8-10 minutes until soft and elastic.
- Cover the bowl and let it rise for 60-90 minutes in a warm spot until doubled in size.
Filling Preparation
- Peel and cube potatoes, boil for about 15-20 minutes until tender, then drain and mash with unsalted butter.
- In a skillet, melt butter, add diced onion, sauté until translucent, then add ground meat, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook until browned.
- Mix the cooled meat with the creamy mashed potatoes and add dill, salt, and pepper to taste.
Piroshki Assembly and Cooking
- Once dough has risen, punch it down and divide into 12 pieces. Roll each piece into an oval shape and fill with about 1 tablespoon of filling, then seal edges.
- Heat vegetable oil to 350-375°F (180-190°C) and fry Piroshki in batches for about 5 minutes until golden brown.

Notes
For best results, use a kitchen scale for accurate flour measurement and ensure oil is hot enough before frying.
