Ingredients

• 1 head (medium) Cabbage
• 500 grams Ground beef
• 1 large Onion
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 30 grams Butter
• 2 large Eggs
• 300 grams All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 200 grams Sour cream
• 100 milliliters Milk

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

Step 2

Finely chop the cabbage and onion. Mince the garlic.

Step 3

In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté for 2 minutes until they become fragrant.

Step 4

Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook, breaking it into smaller pieces, until browned and fully cooked, about 7-8 minutes.

Step 5

Stir in the cabbage, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Cook for another 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage softens. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.

Step 6

In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Add the butter and use your fingertips to incorporate it into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 7

In another bowl, beat the eggs and mix them with the sour cream and milk. Gradually add this wet mixture to the flour, stirring until a soft dough forms.

Step 8

Divide the dough into two portions, one slightly larger than the other. Roll out the larger portion on a floured surface to fit the bottom and sides of a greased pie dish.

Step 9

Transfer the rolled-out dough to the pie dish, pressing it gently into the edges.

Step 10

Spoon the cabbage and meat mixture into the pie crust, spreading it evenly.

Step 11

Roll out the remaining dough and place it over the top of the filling. Seal the edges by pinching them together, and cut a few small slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.

Step 12

Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and cooked through.

Step 13

Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy!
