Knead the flour, egg, water, and half of the salt into a firm but smooth dough.
Cover the dough and rest it for 20 minutes so the gluten relaxes and the sheets roll thinly.
Mix the lor cheese, chopped parsley, black pepper, and remaining salt.
Divide the dough into two balls, roll them into thin sheets, and cut squares.
Place cheese filling on each square, fold into triangles, and press the edges firmly.
Boil the piruhi in salted boiling water for 6 minutes, until they rise to the surface.
Whisk the yogurt with garlic and heat the dried mint in butter for 1 minute.
Drain the piruhi and serve hot with yogurt and mint butter.
💡 Tip: Resting the dough for 20 minutes reduces tearing and lets the wrappers roll thinner.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve hot with browned butter and dried mint on top.
