Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make jellied pie with canned fish using kefir? Prepare all the necessary ingredients for the jellied dough. Kefir and egg should be at room temperature, so remove them from the refrigerator in advance (about 1 hour). Use premium flour.

Step 2

Step 2
Combine the egg with salt and whisk until smooth. The white should combine with the yolk.

Step 3

Step 3
Pour in kefir (3.2% fat content) at room temperature and stir the mixture until smooth.

Step 4

Step 4
Add flour sifted with baking soda and mix. You should get a semi-viscous flowing dough. If the dough turns out too viscous, add more kefir or milk to it. But add little by little — 1-2 tbsp. l.. Then stir, look at the consistency and add more if necessary. Because if you pour too much, the dough will become very liquefied and you will have to add more flour.

Step 5

Step 5
Prepare all the necessary ingredients for the filling. You can use any canned fish to your taste: it can be saury, sardine, mackerel, pink salmon. You need a 250 g jar.

Step 6

Step 6
Mash the canned fish and liquid with a fork. If the fish has large bones or spine, remove them.

Step 7

Step 7
Grate the cheese on a coarse grater. Use cheese that melts easily and tastes good.

Step 8

Step 8
Pre-boil the eggs, cool, peel and finely chop.

Step 9

Step 9
Rinse the dill with cold water, shake off and finely chop. In addition to dill, you can use any other herbs to taste: parsley, cilantro.

Step 10

Step 10
In a bowl, combine canned fish, boiled eggs, grated cheese and herbs.

Step 11

Step 11
Mix everything thoroughly.

Step 12

Step 12
Grease a baking dish (I have a size of 24*18 cm) with vegetable oil. Pour half the dough into the mold and smooth it out. Properly prepared dough will spread on its own.

Step 13

Step 13
Spread the filling evenly over the dough, not reaching the edges.

Step 14

Step 14
Carefully pour the remaining dough over the filling. Place the pie in an oven preheated to 180°C for about 30 minutes. The exact time depends on the features of your oven and the size of the baking dish — if the mold is small, then the layer of dough in it will be thicker and, accordingly, it will take longer to bake. If the pan is wide, the layer of dough will be slightly thinner and will bake faster. So keep your eye on your pie.

Step 15

Step 15
The top of the pie should be browned. Bon appetit!
