A simple but delicious Masalski chicken recipe.
It is necessary
- - 200 grams of margarine
- - a glass of milk (about 200 ml)
- - salt
- - 500 grams of flour
- - 600 grams of chicken fillet (you can use any minced meat)
- - 2 medium onions
- - greens
- - 9-10 pieces of potatoes
- - sunflower oil
- - baking paper
Instructions
Step 1
We take margarine and melt it in a water bath, stirring regularly. Add milk and salt to the already cooled margarine. Stir with a mixer, but do not whisk!
Step 2
Now gently stir in the flour. Stir in the flour gradually so that the dough is not too tough, otherwise it will become dull and dry after baking. Knead the dough like dumplings. When it stops sticking to your hands, then it's time to leave it and start stuffing.
Step 3
You can use any filling, but I like the traditional chicken, potatoes and onions. We clean the potatoes and cut them into small strips. Place in a large bowl. Take the chicken and cut it into pieces (no need to cut the chicken into small pieces!). We also send it to a bowl where we already have potatoes. Now we cut the onion into strips and add to the same place. Salt, pepper, I also add bay leaves, about 5. I do not recommend adding any spices, as they can interrupt the real taste of our pie. Mix everything thoroughly.
Step 4
We return to the test. After it has lain with you, you need to crush it again. We take the form in which you are going to bake, grease it with sunflower oil and cover it with parchment on top. In principle, it is possible without parchment, but it prevents the cake from sticking to the mold. In addition, baking paper protects the cooking utensils from contamination, thus eliminating the laborious work of washing the mold after the cakes are baked.
Step 5
Now we take the dough, divide it into two parts, one smaller, the other larger. Roll out most of the dough to about the size of your baking dish. We carefully transfer it to the mold, level it, leaving the sides to give the dough the shape of a cup. Put our filling into the resulting shape.
Step 6
Now we are engaged in the so-called pie lid, for this we take the rest of the dough and roll it out also on your baking dish. Transfer to the cake and fix the edges of the cake and lid. The excess dough that forms during the fixing of the edges must be removed. Now we make a hole in the center so that our cake "breathes". We send everything to the oven, preheated to 160 degrees. The kurnik will be ready in about 1.5 hours. The first 30 minutes you need to bake at the same oven temperature, and then you need to lower it so that the cake does not burn and bake evenly.
Step 7
When the dough grasps a little, you need to pour salt water into the chicken house through a funnel, about half a glass. This is necessary so that the cake is not too dry. Take regular water and salt it a little. This can be done 1-2 times. After 1, 5 hours, the pie is ready!
