Pie on kefir in a hurry - the general principles of cooking
The undoubted advantages of all these recipes is the minimum set of ingredients and the speed of baking. It takes a maximum of 5 minutes to knead the dough, from 1 to 5-7 minutes to prepare the filling and 20-30 minutes to bake.
The main ingredients of the dough are kefir, flour and eggs. In order for the dough to rise and become airy and gentle, use soda or baking powder. Kefir will suit any fat content, take only fresh eggs, and sift the flour before kneading.
Depending on the type of filling, sugar, butter, mayonnaise and other products can be added ingredients to the dough.
But the filling itself is a space for fantasy. You can use whatever your heart desires. The most popular options are: chicken, canned fish, mushrooms, potatoes, cabbage, egg, greens. And also sweet fillings: apples, dried fruits, berries, jams and jams, and much more.
Basically, half of the finished dough is poured into the prepared form, then the filling is laid out, then covered with the dough residues. But you can experiment: for example, leave the top of the cake open or divide the dough not into two, but into five parts, spreading it along with the filling. And you can put out the filling first, and then pour the dough all over. As you like, there is no exact prescription, as long as the dough is cooked according to the recipe, everything else is at your discretion.
