Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb. cabbage
  • 4 cups flour
  • 1 cup water
  • 5 tbsp sunflower oil
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 tbsp sugar
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • ¾ oz dry yeast

Instructions
 

  • Pour into a deep container, of slightly heated water, and dissolve salt, yeast, and sugar in it. Cover with food film and leave it warm for a quarter of an hour for the yeast to start working.
  • Mix the yeast with flour, add a tablespoon of butter, and knead the dough for ten minutes so that it stops sticking to your palms.
  • Cover the dough again and leave for an hour and a half. It should double.
  • Cut cabbage into squares. Heat the pan, pour in the oil, and spread the cabbage into it, season with salt and pepper, and fry for about 20 minutes, stirring constantly.
  • Divide the dough in half. In this case, one part should be slightly less than the second. Roll a larger piece of dough into a layer, a bit larger form, in which you will bake a cake.
  • Grease the form with butter and gently cover it with rolled dough. Spread roasted cabbage and cover with a second, previously rolled-out layer of dough. Edges we pinch, forming a beautiful piping. We pierce in several places with a fork.
  • Coat the surface of the cake with olive oil and bake for 20 minutes at 392 °F (200°C) until a delicious crust appears on top.
  • Enjoy your meal! 😊

Notes

Sift flour several times to saturate it with oxygen.
