Kutaby with banana-Apple and meat fillings. Qutab (or gutab) — flour dish of Azerbaijani cuisine, fine cake in the shape of a Crescent made of unleavened dough with filling. My family is very fond of pasties. But sometimes pasties want to, but the oil in which they fry - do not want at all! Fried on a dry pan WITHOUT OIL... kutaby - a great alternative. Make meat for my husband and banana-Apple sweet filling for children. Delicious hot (crispy dough, soft filling) and cool (the dough is impregnated with the filling and becomes softer). Recipe sweet filling belongs to Natalia Grekova, but I'm doing it a little differently.

The work surface and rolling pin liberally sprinkle with flour. Roll out the dough to a thickness of 1-2 mm. Cut out the circle. I like to use the lid of the pot, very comfortable to press and hold on the handle.
Trimming is sent to the rest of the dough, then roll out to cutbow.
