Already read: 24263 times

Russian cuisine has long been famous for its pies. There is even a saying: "The hut is red not with corners, but with pies." The very name "pie", as it were, reminds us of "a feast for the whole world."

So why more and more people prefer foreign fast food, and not primordially Russian feasts-pies? Probably, it’s just that many housewives have stopped baking pies, or maybe they don’t know how at all. We will fix this and learn how to bake delicious pies.

How and with what to bake a pie, what to put in it, fillings for pies- read on.

Fillings for pies

A good pie is a good dough and filling. Poorly cooked dough will make the cake sticky and ugly, the taste of the dough also suffers. But unsuccessful fillings can spoil even the most airy, most delicate dough.

For traditional Russian pies and pies, “live” dough is more suitable, that is, sour, yeast, sourdough or sour cream, whey, yogurt or beer. Puff and unleavened shortbread dough look good in pies.

How to prepare the dough, read below:

Important:

Only vegetable oil is added to the dough for pies with fish or vegetable filling.

For pies with meat in the dough, melted fat is best. Kulebyaki and pies with poultry are very tasty with dough in butter and ghee.

Pies with savory fillings are baked from dough with less eggs and butter. So it turns out a dryish crust with a juicy filling inside.

So that the sweet filling does not “corrode” the dough, it is prepared more rich, fat and fluffy.

Yeast dough must rise twice or, as our grandmothers said, “sour”, that is, the yeast smell should disappear and the dough becomes more airy.

The cake is best baked from the dough divided into two unequal parts. Most of it is placed on a baking sheet, the filling is on it and covered with a smaller part.

Kurniki and kulebyaki are traditionally baked with 3-5 different fillings, each layer of the filling is spread with pancakes.

Remember that the bottom layer of the filling must be dry. For example, from porridge. Otherwise, the bottom of the pie will fall apart before serving.

Fillings for pies after processing and preparation must be cooled. You can not put warm filling on the dough. The cake will swell a lot, the appearance will deteriorate, and the dough may not be baked.

Getting to the preparation of the pie, let's decide - what kind of pie do we bake? Pies are open, closed, lattice or semi-closed.

For closed pies, fillings from:

• bird
• mushrooms
• cabbage
• jam

For open and lattice fillings with a high moisture content are more suitable:

• cottage cheese
• jam
• berries
• fruit

The secret of a delicious and juicy filling is this:

• Meat, fish, mushroom, vegetable or rice-egg stuffing is always better to salt a little. So the finished cake will not be bland and tasteless.
• I recommend powdering berry, cottage cheese and fruit fillings with ordinary starch. So the filling will become one whole and will not fall out of the pie in pieces.

I don’t think it’s necessary to tell how to prepare a filling from eggs with rice, cabbage or minced meat, and even more so from berries or jam. Unusual toppings, original tastes and aromas you will get according to the following recipes.

Chicken Stuffing with Cheese

Cut the chicken fillet as small as possible with a sharp knife, fry in butter, remove with a slotted spoon and cool. Grind the cooled chicken very finely. Separately, fry the onion in half rings and also cool. Mix chicken, onion, salt and pepper to taste. Add grated cheese and mix.

Salted herring filling

Pass the salted herring fillet through a meat grinder with a piece of white bread and an apple. Separately, boil the egg and fry the onion. Mix all ingredients, knead thoroughly and chill.

Sorrel filling

Wash the sorrel leaves, pour over with boiling water and clean all hard places. Cut into strips with a sharp knife, add sugar to taste. It is better to put just a little bit of sugar. Grind the sorrel with sugar, squeeze out excess liquid and spread over the dough.

Stuffing of pickled or salted mushrooms

Rinse mushrooms with running water, chop and mix fried with chopped onions. Add a little vegetable oil and a spoonful of flour or breadcrumbs.

Bird cherry filling

Grind dry bird cherry berries in a coffee grinder. Pour in a small amount of boiling water, so that the mass becomes very thick. Add honey or sugar to taste.

Poppy filling

Brew poppy seeds with boiling water, then grind in a mortar or pass a couple of times through a meat grinder. Add honey, butter ghee and raw egg. Knead and chill.

What is more important - dough or filling? Let's do without controversy, but at the same time we will learn how to prepare such amazing fillings that no one will doubt the correct answer to this question!

Do you think pies are tasty, but corny? Do you think there is nowhere to turn around in this case? Do you think that you have mastered a couple of recipes and completed a minimum personal task? You are wrong many times! Pies are art. You can cook pies for a month - and not repeat yourself, do not fall into monotony, do not slide down to .... Don't believe? But in vain! Look, here's a topic for you - filling for pies: 15 sweet and the same number of savory fillings - already, consider, the plan for the next 30 days is ready. And if you also include different types of dough in it ... In general, you are guaranteed a pie paradise!

15 savory pie fillings

1. Mushrooms

Simple champignons, royal white, playful mushrooms, simple chanterelles - by and large, almost all mushrooms are suitable for being hidden in pies. The most important point - you need to understand that before wrapping the mushrooms in the dough, they must already undergo a complete heat treatment (with the exception, of course, of those species that can be eaten raw).

And yes, mushrooms without onions are boring - don't forget that. In addition, you can mix them with potatoes, eggs, beans, meat.

2. Meat, sausage, ham, boiled pork

If you just stuff the meat into the dough, you are unlikely to get delicious pies, no matter how expensive the original product is. But if you mix it with cheese or fried onions, eggs and herbs, add bell pepper or a little cauliflower, it will come out very great!

Meat is satisfying, but, as a rule, quite dry, so it is necessary to dilute it with something juicy and neutral. Boiled beef and lots and lots of fried onions are a classic filling for pies. Chicken fillet and cheese with herbs are almost the same classics. In general, it is quite possible to mix any kind of meat with any vegetable-cheese, and it will be great. The main thing is not to be afraid of experiments.

Do not forget that, among other things, meat (as well as boiled pork, ham or sausage) in the filling for pies goes well with mushrooms, beans, potatoes, cereals.

3 eggs

The most common hard-boiled eggs can be chopped into cubes and mixed with fried onions, salt and pepper. Nothing superfluous, but how delicious it turns out! Surprisingly, such a filling for pies subtly smacks of mushrooms.
Eggs go great with green onions and rice. They can be mixed with a small amount of bacon, meat, fish, vegetables, greens.

4. Leaver

Who doesn't love liver pies? Everyone loves pies with liver! Yes, sometimes there is a dismissive attitude towards this filling, however, most often it is due only to the fact that under industrial conditions the liver comes out of poor quality and suspicious composition. However, if everything is done at home, carefully and with pleasure, if the kidneys, heart, lungs, liver are well washed and thoroughly cleaned, the filling will be amazing.

And do not be greedy - add lots and lots of fried onions: it will be juicy and fragrant!

5. Potato

Boiled potatoes, mashed, mixed with cracklings, onions, peppers, tender and fragrant - in general, the number one filling for pies! Baking with such a center turns out to be tender, soft, does not get stale for a long time and remains very tasty until the last day.

It is worth noting that if you want to diversify this filling, you can add mushrooms, meat, liver, cheese, broccoli to mashed potatoes.

6. Braised cabbage

Ordinary white cabbage is wonderful in pies! Cut into thin strips, fry and stew, salt and add pepper. Actually, science is not complicated. If you want a more interesting option, try adding tomato paste, fried onions or carrots, a little finely chopped prunes to the filling.

For a more luxurious option, cook braised cabbage with fried bacon, smoked sausages or ham.

7. Sauerkraut

Sauerkraut is often looked down upon as a rustic product, and in vain! After washing it and stewing it in vegetable oil, mix the mass with a boiled egg and lingonberries - you have an unrealistically fragrant, interesting in taste, amazing filling, non-standard, original and healthy.

Sauerkraut pies are certainly not an elegant gourmet dish, however, simple food often tastes better than any restaurant delights, don't forget that. And don't forget the sauerkraut!

8. Fish

No, no, we are not talking about salmon with trout, although, of course, they are also wonderful in pies. Let's take a completely budgetary hake or a slightly fatter mackerel, boil it and sort it into “spare parts” - separately bones, separately fillets. Mix the resulting meat with lightly fried onions, add salt and pepper to taste, season with sour cream or heavy cream - and that's it, you can sculpt pies!

Hard-boiled eggs, dill, parsley and green onions, a couple of spoons of rice and spinach, mushrooms or potatoes do not interfere at all, you know.

9. Canned fish

There are no a couple of fish in the freezer, but do you want pies with fish filling? It doesn't matter, take out the canned food from the pantry, drain the oil, mix the sardine sardine with a boiled egg and fried onions and get an excellent filling. Budget, but still worth it.

10. Peas

It's simple - thick pea puree inside, garlic sauce outside. Nothing complicated, not a single expensive product, but what an unrealistically beautiful and incredibly wonderful result!

11. Greens, spinach

Of course, if you are a special lover of various herbs, just chop the greens, spinach, sorrel, pour over with boiling water and, after mixing everything with a couple of tablespoons of vegetable oil and salt, put it into the dough.

However, you can go the other way. The same herbs and in the same huge quantities can be combined with a small amount of boiled eggs or cottage cheese - it will turn out unusually tasty. And useful.

12. Cheese

Perhaps cheese by itself is not the best filling for pies, however, combine it with other ingredients and the result will be breathtaking. The best option is to mix it with caramelized onions, and, as a base, it is not necessary to take high-quality Russian or expensive cheddar, ordinary processed cheese is quite suitable.

In addition to onions, cheese is combined with eggs, ham, sausage, herbs. It can be added to meat, fish, vegetables, but if you are in the mood for a predominantly cheese filling, limit yourself to eggs, herbs, and onions. Oh yes, add black pepper - it fits perfectly into the company.

13. Rice

Not, of course, not alone - rice in itself is quite boring and banal. But if you add finely chopped green onions to it, and cut a couple of chicken eggs with an orange rustic yolk, and sprinkle the whole thing with black fragrant pepper .... this is the stuffing! Filling for all toppings!

If desired, eggs can be replaced or supplemented with boiled meat, liver, canned fish.

14. Beans

Yes, beans are a great filling for pies. If by itself this product seems heavy and uninteresting to you, try mixing it with mashed potatoes, fried onions and carrots, mushrooms, and meat.

By the way, a very unexpected, but very interesting option is a sweet filling of beans and poppy seeds. Now we are not talking about this, but you put a tick in your mind.

15. Buckwheat

Wow, that's completely unconventional. But very, very tasty! Buckwheat porridge should be mixed with finely chopped, hard-boiled eggs, seasoned with a spoonful of vegetable oil, seasoned with salt, pepper and herbs. Great option for toppings!

In the presence of time-desire, eggs are easily replaced with boiled and minced liver (oh, how fragrant!) or meat (wow, how satisfying!).
And by the way, here's another unexpected component for you - pickled cucumber (highly desirable - barreled). Not with meat-liver, but with an egg - amazingly tasty! You will be dumbfounded.

15 sweet toppings for pies

1. Curd

One of the most common pie fillings. Cottage cheese gives the finished baking softness - it gives the dough its own moisture, so that the products are especially tender and tasty.

Cottage cheese goes well with raisins, small pieces of apples, it is wonderful with cinnamon and vanilla. Do not forget that for the best result, the sour-milk mass should be mixed with a chicken egg or yolk - this way the filling will be whole and will not spill out of the pie.

2. Jam, jam, jam

It only at first glance seems that hiding the jam in a pie is a matter of a couple of movements. In fact, the preparation of such products requires a certain skill and skill. Given that the consistency of jams and jams is usually thinner than standard fillings, it is necessary to additionally thicken the sweet fruit and berry mass. To do this, you can take crackers or nuts. If you don’t want to “darken” the taste of jam with additional flavors, mix the filling with starch - it will thicken it during heat treatment, however, you will have to tinker with shaping to keep the jam in the dough.

If the filling is completely liquid, first drain the syrup from it. Starch can be replaced with gelatin dissolved in water.

3. Fresh apples

Oh, how pies with apple filling smell! It seems that there is no more beautiful aroma than the thick smell of antonovka, stretching like a viscous train around the apartment ...

You can put a large piece of an apple in the pies, you can cut the fruit into cubes. It is worth adding a little sugar to the filling - as a rule, even sweet varieties give sourness after heat treatment, so additional sweetness does not hurt. Do not forget that due to the large amount of iron, apples quickly darken - if you are not satisfied with such anti-aesthetics, sprinkle the finished filling with lemon juice.

To diversify the standard apple filling, you can add cinnamon, a little grated chocolate, nuts, poppy seeds, raisins, orange or lemon zest. In addition, apples go well with pumpkin, pears, cherries, blueberries, currants, apricots. Absolutely not familiar to us, but a very interesting and worthwhile option - apples with ginger. Fans of experiments can try mixing apples with grated carrots.

4. Currant

The currant itself inside the pies is, of course, delicious, however, this berry is best revealed in the company of chocolate. Black beads should be washed and dried, and then mixed with finely chopped chocolate, adding a little sugar if desired. A wonderful juicy filling, fresh, summery and delicious.

A special “highlight” is to add a finely chopped mint leaf to the filling for pies with currants. Amazing!

3. Strawberry

In the process of baking or frying pies, strawberries will give a lot of juice, so before you hide the berries in the dough, be sure to mix them with starch. For the same reason, it is worth choosing small strawberries, and not cutting large berries into pieces.

Strawberries are very pleasant with cottage cheese, rhubarb, chocolate chips, cherries, raspberries.

5. Raisins, dried apricots, prunes and other dried fruits

Luxurious, believe me! It turns out a kind of candy in the dough - sweet, amazing, colorful.

Dried apricots, raisins, prunes, dates, dried cherries, dried cranberries and other berries and fruits must be scalded with boiling water and dried, after which they can be ground into minced meat using a meat grinder or a bender, or finely chopped by hand. As a result, you will get a plastic mass that can be molded into balls and easily wrapped in dough.

If desired, you can add coconut flakes, orange or lemon zest, fresh apple, nuts to the dried fruit filling.

6. Nuts

Come on, inspect the pantry lockers - there must have been some nuts lying around. Got walnuts? Excellent. Got some hazelnuts? Great. Did you get almonds from the bins? Generally great. We send all this wealth to the blender bowl, pour hot and thick sugar syrup and get an excellent filling for pies. However, with one "but".

The nut mass itself is, of course, unusually tasty and rich, however, it is rather heavy and dense. To make the filling more tender, nuts can be mixed with raisins or dried apricots. Such a mass goes well with cottage cheese, grated apple, whipped proteins, honey. In addition, nut filling for pies can be flavored with bright-tasting alcohol, lemon zest, cinnamon.

7. Poppy

Poppy filling for pies is a luxury, not otherwise! Boil the beautiful blue-black seeds in a small amount of milk, and then pass through a meat grinder several times. Add sugar to taste - ready, you can sculpt pies.

Poppy filling goes well with chopped nuts, raisins, dried apricots. In addition, it can be combined with curd filling, apple, nut.

8. Bananas

A completely non-standard option, not familiar to our latitudes, nevertheless, it has the right, if not for a full-fledged existence, then at least for periodic guests in your home.

It is characteristic that after baking, sweet and often even sugary bananas acquire a stable sour bite, so this should be taken into account. Obviously, a simple solution is to add sugar to the filling, however, in this case, it is better to use sweet yeast dough, and it should be rolled out thinner.

To prepare the filling, bananas need to be peeled, cut lengthwise into plates, and then chopped into cubes. If desired, they can be sprinkled with vanilla sugar or mixed with natural vanilla.

Pies with bananas are best served warm - after cooling, the sour taste intensifies, and the filling darkens.

9. Cherry

Cherry is one of the classic fillings for pies. With this berry, very bright-tasting, fragrant pastries come out. To prevent the juice from flowing out of the products, starch must be added to the filling.

Cherries should be washed and pitted. Sprinkle with a small amount of sugar mixed with starch (for a pound of berries you need to take 70-80 g of sugar and 1 full tablespoon of starch (15 g).

When forming pies, special attention should be paid to carefully fastening the edges of the dough - during heat treatment, cherries release a lot of juice, which strives to run out.

10. Pears

Pears are rarely used as a filling for pies - and completely in vain! Fragrant, tender, delicious, magical - these are the few words that characterize this option.

The recipe is simple - clean, remove the core, cut into pieces. Pear pairs perfectly with vanilla. A very, very worthy option is a pear with coffee (ground, a little, just for flavor). Nuts, poppy seeds, coconut flakes will help you further diversify the pear filling.

11. Plums

Very autumn stuff! Pies with plums smell of the last warmth, October tartness and caress of rare sunlight.

To prepare the filling, select dense fruits, scald them with boiling water, remove the peel, remove the stone and cut into small pieces. Be sure to add some cinnamon and sugar to the plums.

12. Custard

Gentle, affectionate, velvety - it's about custard pies! There are no special secrets, take as a basis any recipe according to which you cook this miracle, just cook it in a thicker version than usual - solely for the convenience of forming pies. If you do not want to make the custard taste simpler (due to the extra flour or starch), you can boil a regular custard and then freeze it in ice molds: such cubes are easier to hide in the dough than a liquid mass.

Do not be greedy and add a little chopped almonds to the custard - the pies will turn out to be unrealistically fragrant!

13. Sorrel

Yes, yes, in the minds of most people there is a belief that sorrel is a plant for borscht and salads, but not for sweet pies, however, sometimes it’s worth fighting your stereotypes and just decisively taking a step towards the unknown.

Before you hide the sorrel in the dough, it is recommended to wash it thoroughly, dry it, cut it into narrow strips, and then lightly simmer in butter (be careful, do not overdo it - the sorrel can quickly turn into a mushy puree). Do not mix the resulting mass with sugar - it will flow quickly: it is better to put a small amount of granulated sugar on the dough, then spread the sorrel, sprinkle sugar on top again, then cover with dough.

Try to cook pies with sorrel filling on cottage cheese dough - it will not “crush” its taste like, for example, yeast, but, on the contrary, it will emphasize favorably.

14. Condensed milk

Sweet! Maybe even too sweet, but when it comes to pies, any sensible thoughts must go into the background and give way to pleasure.

As a filling, alas, only boiled condensed milk is suitable - the usual white, standard and most familiar, it simply will not stay inside the dough, moreover, it will run away even at the molding stage, without reaching the pan.

If desired, condensed milk can be mixed with crushed cookies (any one of your choice - from the pretentious "Savoyardi" to the budget "Zoological".

15. Chocolate and candy

Oh how much kids love this pie filling! Put a slice of chocolate (black, milk, white) on a piece of dough, close and fasten. Easy peasy!

It is very, very good to add berries to this option - strawberries, raspberries, currants go well with chocolate. For those who are older, you can slightly sprinkle the filling with instant coffee.

Of course, it’s not necessary to talk about some kind of sophistication or usefulness in the case of candy filling, however, try to pronounce the expression “candy pies” in front of the children - when you see how your boys’ and girls’ eyes light up, you will cast aside all doubts. "Korovka", any toffees, chocolate bars and even caramels - pies with sweets come out crazy delicious!

Well, are you ready to start a marathon for making pies with a variety of fillings? Get inspired, get positive, get ideas and share your favorite options in the comments. Delicious pies for you!

The hut is red not with corners, but with pies.
folk saying

Pies were originally a festive dish, even the name comes from the word "feast". Over time, pies became commonplace: they were taken with them to work and on the road. And now, when fast food has filled everything and everything, there is nothing better than mom's homemade pie. And a snack for the cub to school, and you can take it to work. A good pie is not only an airy soft dough, but also a delicious filling. Poorly prepared pie fillings can spoil the whole idea if they turn out to be too dry or too liquid. There are several rules for preparing excellent delicious fillings for pies and pies, but first, a little about the principles of preparing the base, the pies themselves.

. The dough for pies and pies should be “live”, that is, sour, yeast, sourdough or cooked with sour cream, yogurt, whey, mash or beer. True, both puff and unleavened dough look good in pies.
. You can add rye flour, second grade flour or bran to the dough for pies - this will not only improve the taste, but also add value to your pies.
. Vegetable oil is added to the dough for pies with vegetable and fish filling, for pies with meat - beef kidney fat, for pies and pies with poultry - butter and ghee.
. Less eggs and butter are put in the dough for savory pies, kneading a fairly steep dough to make pies with a lot of toppings and a thin, dryish crust.
. The dough for sweet pies is richer, fluffier and thicker, as the sweet filling tends to corrode the dough.
. The dough must rise at least twice, and each time it is carefully kneaded and kneaded. This is necessary for better baking and good taste, as well as to eliminate the sour taste of yeast.
. In order for the lower layer of dough to rise and bake well, the dough for a closed pie must be divided into two unequal parts, with the larger part down, place the filling on it and cover with a smaller part.
. For kurniks and kulebyaks, which use 2-3 types of fillings, it is important that the bottom layer of the dough does not get wet, so the fillings in these pies are laid in layers, shifting them with thin pancakes. At the same time, it is desirable to put a drier porridge filling on the “bottom” of the pie, and a fish or meat filling on top.
. All types of fillings are put into pies boiled or fried, pre-cooled. The only exception is the filling of raw fish, while the baking time is approximately doubled.
. Pies are open, closed and semi-closed (lattice). meat stuffing, fish, poultry, mushrooms, eggs, rice and onions are commonly used in closed pies. But fillings that contain enough moisture (cottage cheese, cabbage, jam, apples) are great for open or lattice pies.
. It is recommended to salt the filling a little - this is done so that the finished pies do not seem bland.
. It is good to add a little starch to the filling for sweet pies so that it does not spread and does not flow out.

Toppings for pies can be very different. Traditional fillings for Russian pies are usually made from one product. It can be any porridge, meat, mushrooms, fish, jam or fruit. Modern hostesses love to prepare complex fillings so that it is not only tasty, but also healthy and nutritious, and in such a way as to surprise everyone. We bring to your attention several recipes for delicious fillings.

Boiled beef stew. Boil the meat until half cooked and cut into pieces, as for goulash. In no case do not pass the boiled meat for the filling through a meat grinder, this will make the filling dry, and the dough under it, on the contrary, raw and unbaked. Fry the pieces of meat in melted beef lard with plenty of onions, chop with a knife, add pepper, nutmeg, salt. You can add finely chopped boiled eggs. Before pinching the pie, add 1-2 tablespoons of strong broth to the filling.

Skip the meat through a meat grinder, mix with fried onions, fry in a pan, salt. Season with pepper, parsley, add chopped hard-boiled eggs. In such a filling, you must definitely add some kind of sauce, cream or strong broth so that it does not dry out. This filling is good for pies and pancakes.

Red salted fish filling. Cut the fish into thin slices and place in the pie on top of the filling of buckwheat or rice porridge or between two layers of filling. Don't skimp on seasonings!

For Russian pies, they should be crumbly and high in oil so that the pies are not dry. Rice and millet can be boiled in milk. Fried onions, hard-boiled eggs, mushrooms are added to the buckwheat porridge filling. You can add fried onions, a hard-boiled egg and mushrooms to the rice filling, if the filling is not sweet, or raisins, dried apricots, sugar, a raw egg - for sweet pies. Cottage cheese and pumpkin are added to the millet porridge filling.

Fillings from vegetables and fruits can be very different, everything is limited only by your imagination and taste.

. You can cook pies with fresh, stewed, sauerkraut - according to the season and at will. Chop fresh cabbage finely, salt, let stand for at least an hour. Then slightly squeeze the juice, add butter, finely chopped eggs and consume immediately. Cabbage can be pre-stewed in a saucepan under a lid over low heat, add vegetable oil and fry a little so that the cabbage remains light. Cool, add onions, herbs, ground black pepper and mix with chopped eggs. Squeeze sour cabbage, chop finely, stew a little, add onion, mushrooms.

Raw apple filling. For this filling, apples of sour and sweet and sour varieties are taken. Apples are peeled and seeds are cut into flat slices, sprinkled with powdered sugar and cinnamon and allowed to stand for 15-20 minutes. This filling is good for puff pastry pies.

Cheese pies you can cook from any kind of cheese, but with brynza they turn out, perhaps, the tastiest. To do this, the cheese is crushed, mixed with butter and finely uncut green onions.

As you can see, the folk saying “You will wrap everything in a pie” did not appear in vain. Fillings for pies can be prepared from almost any product. Your imagination and love can create a wonderful treat from an ordinary, in general, dish, healthy and tasty. And your household will be happy to take with them to school or work not the usual sandwich, but a delicious, hearty mother's pie.

Larisa Shuftaykina

I, most of all, like pies, with apricot jam, with apple.

If you don't really like pies with sweet filling, then you can try

original recipe for pies with sausage, cheese and garlic.

The dough is prepared from 2 tbsp. flour, 1 tbsp. tablespoons of oil and half a glass of boiling water and a third of a glass of cold water., salt to taste.

Add boiling water to the flour (with salt), stir thoroughly, then add vegetable oil and cold water. Put the resulting dough in the refrigerator for 1 hour.

For the filling, the sausage is cut into small cubes, three soft cheese on a grater, squeeze the garlic and a little sour cream for viscosity.

We roll out the dough as for dumplings, cut it into squares, put the filling and wrap it like candy. We fry it in a pan, turning it over.

Very fast and tasty.

I really like pies with raw sea fish and raw onions. From sweet pies, I can advise pies with nut filling: walnuts (I have my own) break into pieces (you can use a meat grinder, but the pieces are tastier). Add a spoonful of honey and sugar. Bake only in the oven. Try it, they are very tasty.

My favorite toppings are:

• potatoes with onions (mashed potatoes plus fried onions);
• potatoes with mushrooms (the first option plus fried mushrooms);
• fried mushrooms;
• egg with green onions (chopped boiled egg with green onions);
• meat (boil chicken fillet, chop, mix with fried onions).
• cherries, currants, strawberries, plums, apricots, apples, peaches (all with sugar),

  I love sweet fillings in pies, therefore, I can only offer two of my favorite fillings for yeast pies - top 2:

  • there is nothing better than classic jam;
  • and an apple with cinnamon, or just an apple.

  

  Pies with potatoes, pies with minced meat (can be mixed), pies with eggs and onions, pies with cabbage and mushrooms, pies with fish, pies with smog, pies with any jam, with berries, with fresh apples, pies with rice and eggs.

You can make pies in five minutes. Fortunately, the stores always sell dough for every taste, and the filling can literally be composed “from what was”. So let's take a look in the fridge. Surely in the corner sadly stands the bank with jam - here is the first filling for pies! If the jam is watery, add a couple of tablespoons of starch, crackers or ground nuts to it. If the jam is too liquid, just drain the syrup from it.

Since we started with sweets, it makes sense to talk about fillings for pies from fresh fruits and berries . The simplest option is apples . Best sour, with a pronounced aroma. Sugar is added to the apple filling to taste, as well as aromatic additives: cinnamon (this is a classic!), vanilla, citrus zest, nuts, chocolate, etc.

In a similar way, you can wrap almost any berries and fruits in the dough. They need to be pitted, if any, and cut into pieces. If starch is added to the fruit or berry mass, then the juice released during baking will not boil away, but will turn into a kind of jam. Bananas , which have long ceased to be exotic, can also become just a chic filling for quick pies - put a slice of banana on the dough, sprinkle with chocolate and roll up the pie. Ready!

No less tasty are sweet pies stuffed with dried fruits . And if you mix them with cottage cheese? Great idea! By the way, dried apricots perfectly masks such useful additives as carrots and pumpkin . To prepare tasty and healthy pies with pumpkin or carrots, peel the vegetables, put in a little water until soft and mix with finely chopped dried apricots. Sugar and aromatic additives - to taste.

from nuts and poppy is a luxurious taste. Any nuts need to be crushed (with a rolling pin or in a blender, you can do it the old fashioned way, in a meat grinder) and mix with sugar syrup. Nut mass can be used in its pure form or mixed with cottage cheese, whipped protein, dried fruits, etc. If you decide to bake pies with poppy seeds, boil it in a small amount of milk and pass it through a meat grinder. Poppy goes well with the same nuts, cottage cheese, dried fruits, apples.

Have you tried pies? sorrel ? If not, be sure to prepare. Sorrel, which we used to associate with green cabbage soup, stewed in butter and sugar, tastes like cherries! Rinse the sorrel, dry it, cut it not too finely and simmer in butter, making sure that the sorrel does not become limp. Add sugar last. To prevent the juice from flowing out of the filling, add starch.

Well, the simplest thing that can only be wrapped in dough is condensed milk, chocolate and sweets . With chocolate, everything is clear and so - put a couple of slices of chocolate on the dough, you can add nuts, wrap it. Condensed milk should be taken only boiled, it can be mixed with cookies, nuts or dried fruits. But sweets should be homogeneous, like "Cow", toffee, bars, "School". The pies are just amazing! Children are delighted, nutritionists are shocked, but sometimes you can cook something like that.

Let's move on to savory fillings for pies. There is also enough room for imagination and improvisation. Judge for yourself - the saying that you can wrap everything in a pie fits this case just perfectly.

from meat and sausages very satisfying. As a filling, you can use boiled meat, both beef and chicken, ham, boiled sausage, smoked sausages ... In its pure form, so to speak, such a filling will not be very tasty, no matter how strange it sounds. Meat and meat products are best mixed with fried or green onions, eggs, cheese, vegetables, potatoes, cereals, mushrooms.

Even an ordinary sausage in the dough will be much tastier if it is wrapped with a piece of thin bacon or cheese.

If you decide to cook pies with filling minced meat , it must first be stewed in a pan with onions. You can add green onions, bell peppers cut into small cubes, potatoes or rice, beans.

Filled pies from liver - it's cheap and cheerful, and also very tasty. If you carefully prepare offal, clean and fry the liver, soak the kidneys in milk or soda solution before cooking, boil the lung and heart well, and then pass all this through a meat grinder and mix it with a lot of fried onions, you will get a very juicy and fragrant filling for pies . You can add some boiled rice to it.

Patties with fish very popular in Siberia, and this is understandable. We, city dwellers, can catch the simplest fish in the fish departments of supermarkets, boil it and separate the fillet from the bones. Hake, pollock, blue whiting (too many bones, of course) or fatty mackerel, as well as expensive varieties of fish like salmon, salmon or trout - any fish in pies looks very, very good. Mix boiled fish fillet with browned onions, salt, pepper, season with sour cream ... Or add boiled eggs, herbs, boiled rice, potatoes ...

Another variant of pies with fish - stuffing from canned fish . Any canned food in oil or its own juice will do. Drain the liquid from the jar, mix the chopped fillet with fried onions and boiled eggs. You can add rice. Fast and tasty. But sprats or canned food in a tomato for pies are not suitable.

Filling from mushrooms prepared from any kind of mushrooms. Fragrant forest, purchased champignons or oyster mushrooms, fresh, boiled, frozen - all of them must be fully cooked before getting inside the pie. Mushrooms still cook longer than baked or fried pies. Cut the mushrooms, boil or stew in a pan with vegetable or butter and mix with something. Mushrooms look good with onions, eggs, potatoes or meat. Very satisfying!

Eggs They also look good in pies. Cut hard-boiled eggs into small cubes, mix with fried onions, salt and pepper. This time. Mix the same boiled eggs with green onions and boiled rice. This is two. And again, meat, chicken, fried bacon, herbs, fish - all this goes well with hearty eggs.

Filling from cereals and legumes very out of place when there is nothing more to place in the bottom of the barrel. Boil rice or buckwheat, mix with butter, a couple of boiled eggs, you can add green or fried onions. If there is a small piece of sausage - it can also be used. Beans and peas, boiled until soft, can be mixed with fried carrots and onions, or you can add some mushrooms or meat. You will get very tasty and completely inexpensive pies.

About toppings like potatoes and cabbage , even say nothing - it's a classic! Boil potatoes, mash them into puree, mix with meat, liver, boiled eggs, or simply with fried onions. Very tasty. And cabbage can be both fresh and sauerkraut. Cabbage should be chopped and stewed until soft. It can also be mixed with something like sausages or boiled eggs.

Cheese also suitable for filling pies. You can take any cheese, mix it with fried onions or ham, eggs or herbs. Even regular sausages will do. For the filling, even ordinary processed cheese is suitable - much more budgetary! But delicious, try it. Or here's another option for you: put a circle of tomato on the dough, a piece of cheese, a little greens on top, pinch the edges and fry.

Curd with greens also good in pies. Eggs can be added to this filling. Don't forget the salt and pepper. Cottage cheese can be mixed with grated cheese, you get a stretchy filling, well suited for fried flat cakes.

This is just a brief overview on the topic "Fillings for pies." There are many more filling options, because each of you can add something of your own to the filling.

Bon appetit and new culinary discoveries!
