GERMAN STRUDELS



German Strudels image

This is an old family recipe of my aunt's. Almost all of my relatives are German and this is one of the original recipes used for family dinners! Especially good with chicken and cream gravy. You can also make them to the point after rolling and cutting and freeze on cookie sheets, then transfer to plastic bags.

Time 1h35m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 ounce dry yeast
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/2 cup warm water
1 egg
1 3/4 cups flour
2 cups diced potatoes
1/2 cup diced onion
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Combine yeast, salt, sugar, water, egg, and flour to make dough.
  • Divide the dough into small balls.
  • Let rest for a while.
  • Roll balls to about 1/4 inch thick and spread with warm oil.
  • Let the dough rest for a few minutes so the dough will stretch easily, then stretch the dough paper thin.
  • Once the dough is stretched, roll it like you would for cinnamon rolls.
  • Cut the dough (which is rolled up like a snake now) into 3 inch lengths.
  • Coat roaster or heavy pan (you can also use and electric frying pan) with shortening or oil, put as many diced potatoes and onions as you like and season with salt and pepper.
  • Add water to cover the potatoes and bring to a boil.
  • Once water is boiling lay strudels on top of potatoes in two layers.
  • Water should nearly cover strudels.
  • COVER TIGHTLY-THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT OR RECIPE WILL NOT WORK!
  • YOU CANNOT PEEK OR THE STRUDELS WILL "FALL"!
  • Cook over low heat 30 to 35 minutes, or until you can hear a slight "frying" noise in the pan.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Prep the Vegetables: Before you start cooking, wash and chop all the vegetables you'll need. This will save you time and ensure that everything is ready when you need it.
  • Use a Sharp Knife: A sharp knife is essential for thinly slicing the chicken breasts. If your knife is dull, it will tear the chicken and make it difficult to work with.
  • Pound the Chicken Breasts: Pounding the chicken breasts helps to tenderize them and make them more evenly cooked. You can use a meat mallet or a rolling pin to do this.
  • Season the Chicken: Before cooking the chicken, season it with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices. This will help to enhance the flavor of the chicken.
  • Cook the Chicken: Cook the chicken breasts in a hot skillet until they are cooked through. Be careful not to overcook the chicken, or it will become dry and tough.
  • Make the Filling: While the chicken is cooking, make the filling for the strudels. Sauté the vegetables in a pan until they are softened, then add the chicken, cream, and cheese. Stir until everything is well combined.
  • Assemble the Strudels: Place a sheet of phyllo dough on a work surface. Brush it with melted butter, then top it with a layer of the filling. Roll up the dough tightly, then brush it with more melted butter.
  • Bake the Strudels: Place the strudels on a baking sheet and bake them in a preheated oven until they are golden brown. Serve the strudels warm with your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

This creamy chicken strudel recipe is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The chicken is tender and juicy, the filling is creamy and flavorful, and the phyllo dough is crispy and flaky. Follow these tips to make the best creamy chicken strudels: prep the vegetables, use a sharp knife, pound the chicken breasts, season the chicken, cook the chicken, make the filling, assemble the strudels, and bake the strudels.
