.
For the filling, finely chop the meat, onion, peeled potatoes and fat. Mix the ingredients in one bowl, salt and pepper to taste.
Pour butter into the stuffing, knead the components with your hands so that the onion gives juice. Place the

roll out as thinly as possible. Grease the layer with melted butter, roll out the second roll in the same way.
Divide the stuffing into two equal parts, put one part on the layer. Spread the filling in a thin layer on the surface and place the second layer on it.
Brush the top of the layer with butter and seal the edges of both layers. Spread the filling on the second layer and roll it up.
Form a snail from the large roll, hide the tip down.
