Preparation

Screen ON

Step 1

Measure out the ingredients for the dough. Any milk fat content will work, just warm it slightly.

Step 2

Sift flour into a wide bowl with high sides to enrich it with oxygen. This makes the dough rise better and the pie fluffier.

Step 3

Activate the yeast: warm water slightly, dissolve yeast and 1 tsp sugar in it, stir well. Leave for 10-12 minutes until a foamy cap appears.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, beat the egg with the remaining sugar and salt until smooth.

Step 5

Add the warm milk, mix lightly.

Step 6

Add the activated yeast, stir.

Step 7

Pour in vegetable oil, mix again.

Step 8

Add most of the sifted flour. Don’t add all at once - you may need more or less.

Step 9

Start mixing with a spoon, then gradually add the rest of the flour while kneading by hand until the right consistency.

Step 10

The dough should be soft, tender, pliable, and not sticky. Cover with a towel and let rise in a warm place.

Step 11

While it rises, prepare the filling. Use pork, beef, or mixed ground meat.

Step 12

Peel and finely chop the onion.

Step 13

In a skillet, heat oil and sauté onion over medium heat until golden.

Step 14

Add ground meat. Fry with onion, stirring and breaking lumps. Season with salt and spices. Cook until the meat turns brown.

Step 15

Wash cabbage, remove outer leaves, and shred thinly.

Step 16

Sauté cabbage with some oil until cooked, stirring often. Add a few spoons of hot water if needed. Season with salt while cooking.

Step 17

Mix the cabbage with the ground meat. Cool completely.

Step 18

After 80-90 minutes, the dough should rise 2-2.5 times.

Step 19

Punch it down and place on a floured surface. Divide into two parts: larger for the bottom, smaller for the top. Save a little for decoration.

Step 20

Roll out the larger piece into a round sheet, bigger than your baking pan to form edges.

Step 21

Line a 22 cm (9 in) pan with parchment, grease the sides with oil. Place dough inside, forming edges.

Step 22

Spread the filling evenly.

Step 23

Roll out the smaller dough piece and cover the filling. Seal edges well. Make a small hole in the center for steam to escape.

Step 24

Cut shapes from leftover dough to decorate the top.

Step 25

Beat the yolk with a little milk.

Step 26

Brush the pie with yolk mixture.

Step 27

Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (356°F) for 30-35 minutes until golden. If it browns too quickly, cover with foil. Cool slightly in the pan before removing.

Step 28

This yeast pie with cabbage and meat is delicious both warm and cooled. Enjoy!
