| Kulebiaka (Flaky Pie) With A Meat Filling |
Ingredients
1 kg meat
300 g onion
1 kg yeast dough
¼ tea spoon ground black pepper
salt to taste
1 egg yolk
¼ glass milk
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
Description
Kulebiaka is a big pie more than 1 kg weight with the edges completely pressed up. It is a traditional Russian pie made with yeast dough with different fillings. The dough may be enriched with various flavors, like, for instance, carrot juice.
Method
Peel the onion, finely chop it and saute in vegetable oil. Rinse and chop the meat. Fry it in a heavy skillet and grind the meat in a meat grinder. Blend it with the sauteed onion, sprinkle with salt and pepper and mix well. Roll out the dough into 2 equal flat rectangular layers 1 cm thick wide enough to cover the cookie sheet. Put one layer on the cookie sheet coated with vegetable oil and place the filling evenly all over it. Then cover it with the other layer and firmly press the edges of the layers with your fingers. Let the kulebiaka rest for 15-20 minutes at room’s temperature, then top it with the egg yolk, milk and sugar mixture. Pierce some parts of the kulebiaka with a fork and bake in an oven at 190-210 degrees C for 30-40 minutes.

Desserts |
| Pudding |
Ingredients
1 c Molasses
4 ea Lg. sweet potatos - peeled & grated
1/2 c Buttermilk
1/2 c melted butter
2 ea Eggs
Salt
Method
Honey may be substituted for molasses. I had this dish made both ways. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 2 qt. baking dish. Beat eggs, add the molasses or honey, melted butter, & salt. Stir in the grated sweet potatos. Pour this mixture into the baking dish. Bake for 2 hours or until the pudding is a dark, caramel color. Be sure to grate the sweet potatos just befor eusing them as they will turn dark and not look as appetizing when cooked.
