Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to bake a yeast pie with fresh cabbage in the oven? First prepare the ingredients for the dough. Warm the milk slightly. It should be warm, but not hot, otherwise the yeast will die. You can read more about the features of working with different types of yeast in the article, the link to which is at the end of the recipe.

Step 2

Step 2
In a suitable sized bowl, dissolve the yeast and sugar in the milk.

Step 3

Step 3
Sift flour into yeast mixture.

Step 4

Step 4
Mix the mixture well with a whisk until the lumps of flour disappear. Cover the dough with a towel and leave in a warm place to rise for about 20 minutes.

Step 5

Step 5
Measure out the ingredients for the dough. The milk should also not be cold. Warm it until slightly warm. Take unscented vegetable oil.

Step 6

Step 6
Sift the flour into a bowl with high sides. Flour enriched with oxygen makes the dough rise easier and faster. And the finished baked goods will turn out more fluffy.

Step 7

Step 7
By this time, the dough has doubled in volume. Many bubbles appeared on its surface.

Step 8

Step 8
To knead the dough, take a spacious container with high sides. Whisk the eggs with salt and sugar until smooth.

Step 9

Step 9
Pour in slightly warmed milk and stir.

Step 10

Step 10
Lay out the suitable dough, stir.

Step 11

Step 11
Add vegetable oil, stir lightly.

Step 12

Step 12
Pour sifted flour into the resulting mass (about 3/4), stir the dough first with a spoon. Do not pour out all the flour at once; you may need less or more than indicated in the recipe, since the properties of flour may be different. You can read more about this in the article, the link to which is located at the end of the recipe.

Step 13

Step 13
Add the rest of the flour in small portions, while mixing the dough with your hands. Watch its consistency.

Step 14

Step 14
The dough should be homogeneous, soft, pliable, and not sticky to your hands. Cover the dough with a towel and leave in a warm place to rise for 70-80 minutes. Rising time will depend on air temperature and yeast activity.

Step 15

Step 15
While the dough is rising, prepare the filling. It can also be done in advance. Boil the eggs hard for 8-9 minutes. Immediately place the boiled eggs in cold water to cool. The sharp temperature contrast will make the shell easier to clean.

Step 16

Step 16
Cut the pre-peeled onions into small cubes.

Step 17

Step 17
Wash the cabbage and remove the top leaves. Chop the cabbage into thin strips.

Step 18

Step 18
In a frying pan with vegetable oil, fry the onions, stirring occasionally, for 3-4 minutes.

Step 19

Step 19
Place the prepared cabbage in the pan with the onions and stir. Simmer the cabbage over moderate heat until soft. Halfway through cooking, salt the cabbage, add ground black pepper or any spices to taste. If the cabbage is young, its volume will decrease significantly when stewing.

Step 20

Step 20
Peel the boiled eggs and cut into small cubes.

Step 21

Step 21
Cool the finished cabbage, combine with boiled eggs, and stir.

Step 22

Step 22
The dough has risen and its volume has increased 2.5 times.

Step 23

Step 23
Gently knead the dough and place it on a table sprinkled with flour. Divide the dough into 2 unequal parts: larger for the base of the pie, smaller for the top.

Step 24

Step 24
Roll out most of the dough into a round layer. Its size should be larger than the diameter of the pan in which the cake will be baked.

Step 25

Step 25
Grease a baking dish with a diameter of 22-24 cm with vegetable oil. I covered the bottom of the mold with parchment. Transfer the rolled out dough into the pan, spreading it over the bottom and sides.

Step 26

Step 26
Spread the filling onto the dough in an even layer.

Step 27

Step 27
Place the edges of the dough over the filling.

Step 28

Step 28
Roll out the smaller part of the dough in the same way. Cut out circles of dough using a round notch and place them on top of the filling in the shape of a flower. But you can make the top of the pie at your discretion and decorate it as you wish.

Step 29

Step 29
To grease the pie, beat the yolk with milk until smooth.

Step 30

Step 30
When forming the top of the pie, there should be small holes between the circles of dough to allow steam to escape during baking, or you can make a hole in the middle. Using a pastry brush, brush the top of the pie with the yolk mixture.

Step 31

Step 31
Bake the cabbage pie in an oven preheated to 180 C for about 30-35 minutes until golden brown. If the top of the pie browns prematurely, cover it with foil and continue baking. Cooking time and mode may vary. Read more about how to choose the right baking time and temperature in the article. The link is at the end of the recipe.

Step 32

Step 32
Cool the finished pie slightly, cut into portions and serve. Bon appetit!
