5. Leave the dough in a warm place free from wind and drafts. Cover it with a cotton towel and let it stand for about half an hour. During this time, it will increase in volume by 3 times.
6. Brush a suitable baking dish with a thin layer of vegetable oil. If the mold is silicone, then it does not need additional lubrication. Divide the dough in half and place each part in a heart-shaped mold. Place the product in a heated oven up to 220 ° С for 5-7 minutes, so that it is slightly baked and browned.
7. Meanwhile, while the dough is coming up, peel the onion, chop and marinate in vinegar and warm water. Leave it to marinate while preparing the rest of the ingredients.
