Beef and Potato Piroshki

Step 1

Place dough ingredients in the bread machine and select the dough program. Takes about 90 minutes for the dough cycle to complete.

Step 2

Fry ground beef until evenly browned. Add onions and fry until translucent. Mix together with the mashed potatoes and season with salt and pepper. Allow to cool.

Step 3

Preheat oven to 350°F/180°C.

Step 4

When the dough cycle is done, place onto a lightly floured surface. Roll out the dough into a long sausage shape. Cut pieces of dough the size of a golf ball, it doesn't have to be perfect. You should get 24 pieces from this recipe.

Step 5

Roll each dough balls thinly shaped ovals. Place about 1-2 tablespoons of the filling in the centre. Pinch both sides of the edges of the dough together, creating a seal all around. Don't allow the filling to touch the edges or the seal will come apart.

Step 6

Place the Piroshki upside down on baking paper so you cannot see the pinched seal, and flatten them a bit. Don't allow them to touch each other, as they will stick together.

Step 7

Make the egg wash by beating the egg yolk with 1 teaspoon of whipping cream and brush the piroshki with the egg wash before putting into the oven.

Step 8

Place into the oven and bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes.
