Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk (about 1 hour). Punch down, turn dough out on a generously floured board or pastry cloth, and roll to a 16-inch
square. Cut dough into 4-inch squares. Place 2 to 3 generous tablespoons of filling in center of each square. Bring opposite corners together; pinch to seal. Pour oil into a 9- by 13-inch baking pan. As each square of dough
is filled, turn it in oil, placing buns side by side in pan, pinched sides down.
