Pies with cabbage

Cookinero 30 January 2023

If the dough is lean, then this does not mean at all that it is not tasty ... I propose a variant of yeast dough in vegetable oil and fresh yeast. It is light and airy and is ideal for pies with cabbage. You can make any fillings (mushrooms, rice with mushrooms, potatoes, stewed apples, dried apricots, etc.) I invite you!

How to cook Pies with cabbage

Step 1

Pies with cabbage

First knead the dough. To do this, dilute the yeast in warm water (it is convenient to do it with your hands), add sugar, cover with a film and let the yeast start working. After 15-20 minutes, mix the dough with half the sifted flour, knead well and let rise in a warm place for 40-50 minutes. Add the remaining flour, salt and vegetable oil to the dough and knead the dough well with your hands until elastic. The dough should not stick to your hands. Put it in a clean bowl, cover with a towel and leave to rise in a warm place for 1 hour. Then the dough must be well kneaded and left again for 1 hour to rise.

In a frying pan, heat a small amount of vegetable oil and fry on it, first, finely chopped onions, add chopped garlic, then grated carrots, fry everything together for 7-10 minutes. Put the cabbage, mix and simmer for another 5-7 minutes, then add pepper dressing, tomato paste, bay leaf, salt, pepper, dill, mix, simmer for 5 minutes and turn off. Cool filling to room temperature.

These pies are best enjoyed fresh, but they will stay good for 2-3 days stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. You can also store them at room temperature for a day.
Yes, these pies freeze well. Allow them to cool completely, then wrap them individually in plastic wrap or place them in a freezer-safe bag. They can be frozen for up to 2-3 months. Reheat in a preheated oven or microwave.
Yes, this recipe is vegetarian. To make it vegan, ensure the tomato paste and pepper dressing are vegan-friendly. Also, substitute the sugar-sweetened water glaze with a plant-based milk (like almond or soy milk) for the topping.
If you don't have pepper dressing, use a small amount of bell pepper, finely chopped and sauteed with the onions and carrots. You can also add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a slight kick.
While white cabbage is best, Savoy and Napa cabbage can be used. Savoy cabbage will have a slightly milder flavor, and Napa cabbage will cook faster. Adjust cooking times accordingly.
The best way to reheat these pies is in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes. This will help them crisp up again. You can also use an air fryer for a quicker reheat.
Yes, adding cooked ground beef, pork, or even shredded braised chicken to the cabbage filling is a great way to add protein and flavor. Brown the meat before adding the onions and carrots.
