The dough is prepared very quickly and easily, so even a novice housewife can handle it. It turns out to be simply excellent baking for the holiday table: it flies away in an instant.
If you use goose meat, you will get a real Christmas or New Year's pie.
The appetizing pie retains all the juiciness of the filling for a long time.
Product composition
- 0.6 kilograms of wheat flour;
- two fresh chicken eggs;
- 125 milliliters of boiled water;
- 200 grams of butter;
- half a kilogram of any meat;
- half a kilogram of potatoes;
- two heads of onions;
- salt, ground black pepper and favorite spices - to taste.
Step-by-step cooking process
Beat one fresh chicken egg into a bowl and add the white from the second egg. We put the yolk aside for a while, we will need it a little later.
Add salt to taste (half a teaspoon will be enough), beat a little with a whisk.
Then pour in warm boiled water and stir.
Pour in melted margarine or butter: already cooled, otherwise the eggs will curdle.
Add wheat flour in parts, sifting it through a sieve.
Knead the dough: it should be soft and not stick to your hands.
Place the dough in a bowl and cover with cling film: let it sit while we make the filling.
We wash any fresh meat (pulp) and cut it into small pieces. You can use any meat, but it is better if it is fatty: then the pie will turn out juicier.
Place the chopped meat in a bowl, add salt and pepper to taste.
Wash the potatoes, peel them and cut them into two parts.
Cut each potato half into thin slices.
Peel two large onions and cut into small cubes.
Add salt to taste, ground black pepper and turmeric (optional) to the bowl with potatoes. Pour in a little odorless vegetable oil and mix.
Knead the dough again and divide into two parts: one should be smaller.
Round a large piece of dough, sprinkle with flour and roll out into a round layer: 4-5 millimeters thick.
Line a baking tray with baking paper and transfer the dough onto it (using a rolling pin).
We spread the filling, retreating from the edge by about three centimeters.
Place the potatoes first and sprinkle with onions.
Place the meat last. If you have dry meat, then spread slices of butter over its surface.
Roll out the second piece of dough into a round layer: its thickness should be the same as the first.
Pinch off a small ball from it immediately.
Cover the pie with the second layer, pinch the edges with a pigtail.
Brush the top of the pie with beaten egg yolk and make a hole in the middle (so steam can escape).
You can cover the top with a piece of dough cut in the shape of a Christmas tree (see photo). But the holes must remain.
Place the baking sheet with the pie in the oven, preheated to 180 degrees, for 50-80 minutes.
Cover the finished pie with a towel and let cool.
Bon appetit!

In the meantime, prepare 2-3 types of minced meat separately, simmering the products until half cooked. Salt and pepper to taste. Knead the risen dough, cut it into balls weighing 25-30 g and form pies with various types of filling. Dip them into the melted butter and place them tightly in the pan, alternating, filling the pan ⅔ full. Let sit and place in a hot oven for 30-40 minutes. The pie is eaten by separating it into small pies. Alternatively, you can prepare such a pie not in the form of small pies, but in the form of a surprise pie: roll out the dough in the form of several long strips 8-10 cm wide and 25-30 cm long. Place one type of minced meat on each strip and pinch the edges so that you get long “sausages”. Place the “sausages” in the pan, starting from the center, placing them in a circle and alternating them. Bake a pie. Serve by cutting into slices like a cake. Your guests will be left scratching their heads trying to figure out how you managed to hide the filling in the pie like that!
Happy baking!
