Ingredients

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.75 cups unsalted butter
• 0.5 cups cold water
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 3 cups green cabbage, finely shredded
• 1 medium onion, finely diced
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 0.5 teaspoons ground black pepper
• 1 large egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt.

Step 2

Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes and add it to the flour. Use a pastry cutter or your hands to work the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 3

Slowly add the cold water while mixing, until the dough comes together into a ball. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 20 minutes.

Step 4

While the dough chills, prepare the filling. Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat and sauté the diced onion until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute.

Step 6

Stir in the shredded cabbage, salt, and ground black pepper. Cook until the cabbage is soft and the moisture has evaporated, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let the filling cool completely.

Step 7

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 8

Roll the chilled dough out onto a floured surface to about 1/8-inch thick. Cut the dough into 4-inch circles using a cookie cutter or a glass.

Step 9

Place a heaping tablespoon of the cabbage mixture in the center of each dough circle.

Step 10

Fold the dough over to create a half-moon shape and press the edges together to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges for a decorative touch.

Step 11

Brush the tops of the pastries with the beaten egg to ensure a golden finish.

Step 12

Place the pastries on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.

Step 13

Remove from the oven and let the pastries cool slightly before serving.
