Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1

Mix the yeast with a tablespoon of sugar and 100 ml of warm milk. Let it sit for 5–10 minutes until bubbles form on the surface.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, melt the butter and mix it with 50 ml of sunflower oil, the remaining warm milk, sugar, half a teaspoon of salt, and two eggs.

Step 3

Add the yeast mixture and 400 grams of flour, mix well, cover with plastic wrap, and place in a warm area for 30 to 60 minutes. The mixture should rise and become covered with large bubbles.

Step 4

Add the remaining flour to the dough and knead it. This can be done with a mixer, but be sure to finish kneading the dough by hand. The dough should not be too stiff, but it shouldn't stick to your hands either. Transfer the dough to a large container, cover it with plastic wrap, and place it in a warm spot for another 40-60 minutes. It should double in size.

Step 5

Transfer the dough to a large bowl, cover it with plastic wrap, and place it in a warm spot for another 40 to 60 minutes. It should double in size.

Step 6

Chop the cabbage and boil it in salted water for 20 minutes. Then drain in a colander. Meanwhile, place the eggs in boiling water and cook them for 11 minutes. After that, peel and cut them into small cubes.

Step 7

In a skillet, sauté the diced onion until golden brown, then add the cabbage and stir-fry for 3–4 minutes until the water from the cabbage evaporates. Add the eggs to the cooked cabbage.

Step 8

Punch down the risen dough, cut off a small piece, roll it into a sausage shape, and cut the sausage into several equal-sized pieces.

Step 9

Roll out each piece of dough, place the filling on top, and seal the edges, shaping the pastry into a boat-like form. Repeat this process with all the dough.

Step 10

Cover the pastries with a cloth and place them in a warm spot for 30 minutes. Then, bake in an oven preheated to 355°F for 30–40 minutes.
