Cooking

1. Cooking dough. We heat the milk, but not to a hot state, so as not to brew the yeast. We heat up to about 35%. Pour sugar, yeast and a couple of pinches of flour into the warmed milk. Stir, now cover with a film and set in heat for 10-15 minutes.

2. After a while, the yeast activated and rose with bubbles.

3. Using a whisk, mix the dough with 1 egg, vegetable oil and salt.

5. We pass the flour through a strainer and pour it into the liquid components of the dough, knead the dough.

6. The dough should be soft and not stick to your hands. The entire amount of flour in our dough will not enter. Let's leave some of the flour, it will be useful to us in the future. cover the dough with a towel and put in heat for 1 hour.

7. Now the filling. In a bowl with minced meat, grate garlic, as well as onions, onions - on a coarse grater, and garlic - on a fine grater. Add salt and ground pepper.

8. Grind the cheese on a grater.

9. The dough has risen. We take it to the table and divide it into 2 equal parts.

10. Roll out one part of the dough with a layer 3 mm thick. Cut out circles 7-8 cm in diameter with a glass. Put the minced meat in the middle of the circle.

11. We roll up a circle of dough with filling, like a dumpling, but do not close the edges. Then we connect the ends, folding the workpiece at the fold of the dough. It turns out "chrysanthemum petal".

12. We put parchment into the mold, grease it with oil and put on it part of the “chrysanthemum petals” with meat along the side of the mold. We roll out the second part of the dough also into a layer of 3 mm. We form the same petals, but now with cheese in the middle. Cheese “chrysanthemum petals” are laid out next to the meat ones. So, alternating, lay out all the "petals". We fill out the entire form. Cover with a towel and leave for 15 minutes. In the meantime, turn on the oven to warm up at t = + 180-200 ⁰C.

13. Lubricate the cake on top with an egg (whipped), sprinkle with sesame seeds and send the preheated oven for 40 minutes. We take out the finished cake from the oven, grease with butter, let it soak. Meat pie "Chrysanthemum" with minced meat is ready. Cut and serve for dinner.
