Ingredients:
DOUGH
2 c Flour
1 ts Baking powder
1 ts Salt
1/4 c Vegetable oil
2 tb Ice water
2 Eggs, lightly beaten FILLING
1 Egg, lightly beaten
1 c Kasha, whole roasted
1 1/2 c Chicken broth
1 Lg Onion, diced small
5 tb Schmaltz
Salt & pepper to taste
3 Eggs, lightly beaten
Cooking Instructions:
PREHEAT OVEN TO 400 degrees F. Place the flour, baking powder,
and salt in a large bowl;
mix well. Make a well in the center and add the oil, ice
water, and eggs. Mix with a spoon,
incorporating the wet and dry ingredients to make a smooth
dough. Turn out onto a board
and knead for 2 minutes. Place the dough in a bowl, cover with
a damp towel and let stand
at room temp. for 30 minutes. On a lightly floured surface,
divide the dough into 4 balls.
Slightly flatten each ball to make a disc shape. Divide each
disc into 4 equal balls. Cover
with a damp towel and let sit at room temp. for 10 to 15
minutes. Roll each ball out into a
circle about 3 1/2 in. in diam. Cover the dough circles with a
damp towel until ready to
fill. In a bowl combine 1 beaten egg and the kasha, stirring
to coat each grain with the
egg. Heat a large non-stick sauté pan over high heat. When the
pan is hot, add the grain
and cook, stirring constantly, over moderate heat for 4 to 5
minutes, or until the kasha kernels
are separate and smell nutty. Add the chicken broth and bring
to a boil. Reduce the heat and
cook, covered, for about 20-25 min. or until liquid has
evaporated and the grains are tender
but chewy. Cool at room temp. Meanwhile, sauté the onion in
the chicken fat over high heat
for 15 minutes, stirring frequently, until soft. Add to the
kasha and season with salt and pepper.
Add the 3 eggs and mix well. Place 2 rounded T. filling in
center of each circle. Pull the edges
up around filling, completely enclosing it and pinching the
dough to form a tight package.
Turn the packages over, place seam side down on a lightly
greased baking sheet, and brush
the surface with an egg wash (1 egg beaten with 1 T. water).
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or
until light golden brown. Serve hot.

Ingredients:
DOUGH:
2 1/2 teaspoons dried yeast
Pinch sugar
5 tablespoons warm water
2 1/2 oz. Butter
1 lb Flour
Pinch salt
8 tablespoons Milk
2 Eggs
BUCKWHEAT FILLING:
8 oz Kasha (buckwheat groats)
1 Medium onion
1/4 lb Fresh mushrooms
1 Hard-boiled egg MEAT FILLING:
1 Medium onion
1 tablespoons Oil or butter
8 oz. minced beef OR veal OR chicken
Seasonings: salt, pepper, nutmeg, chopped herbs all to taste
Optional:
1 chopped hard-boiled egg
1 egg for binding
MUSHROOM FILLING:
1 lb Fresh mushrooms
Butter for saute'ing
Chopped herbs to taste
1 chopped hard-boiled egg
Sour cream to bind
Cooking Instructions:
FOR THE DOUGH: Dissolve the yeast and a pinch of sugar in the
warm water.
Sprinkle in a teaspoon of flour and leave for 15 minutes in a
warm place. Pour into a bowl,
mix in the softened butter, sifted flour and salt, the milk
and the beaten eggs, and knead into
a smooth dough. Leave to rise until it has doubled in volume.
Knead again and roll out. Cut
out in small circles: you will be folding these in half to
enclose the filling in a semi-circle or
canoe shape. Brush the inner edges with a little milk to help
them seal firmly. Then either
brush the piroshki with egg and bake in a moderate to hot oven
for about 10 minutes, until
golden brown: or fry them, uncoated, in deep fat. FOR THE MEAT
FILLING: Lightly fry the
onion in the oil or butter, add the meat and cook for 5
minutes. Combine in a bowl with the
seasoning and herbs and allow to cool. Add finely chopped egg
and mix in raw egg to bind
once cool. FOR THE MUSHROOM FILLING: Chop the fresh mushrooms
into quarters
and cook gently in butter with finely chopped herbs for 15
minutes. Season, add a little
chopped onion, chopped hardboiled egg or rice or both, and
enough sour cream to make a
fairly moist filling. FOR THE BUCKWHEAT FILLING: Cook the
kasha in salted water for
about 15 minutes until soft but not mushy. Drain well and
combine with chopped hard-boiled
egg, chopped fried onions, and chopped mushrooms sautéed in
butter. Add seasoning
and herbs to taste. Allow the mixture to cool thoroughly in
the refrigerator and add little
pieces of very cold butter. Use immediately. These are basic
traditional fillings, but there
is plenty of room for invention along non-Russian lines; for
example, egg and mushroom
filling, moistened with butter.
