Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups All-purpose flour
- 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1.25 cups Warm milk (110°F / 43°C)
- 1 quarter cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 Large eggs
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 1 medium White onion, finely chopped
- 2 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt (for filling)
- 1 cup Cabbage, finely shredded (optional)
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil (for cooking filling)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine warm milk, granulated sugar, and active dry yeast. Let the mixture sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy, indicating the yeast is activated.
Add melted butter, eggs, salt, and 2 cups of flour to the yeast mixture. Stir until well blended.
Gradually add the remaining 2 cups of flour, 1/2 cup at a time, while mixing, until a soft dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 6-8 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm spot for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
While the dough is rising, prepare the meat filling. Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Season with salt and black pepper, and cook until browned and fully cooked, about 8-10 minutes. If using cabbage, stir it in and cook for another 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and let the filling cool completely.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 12 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball, then flatten it into a circle about 4-5 inches in diameter.
Place 2-3 tablespoons of the meat filling into the center of each dough circle. Pull the edges of the dough up and over the filling, pinching them together to seal securely. Place the buns seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Cover the prepared buns with a kitchen towel and let them rise for 20-30 minutes, until slightly puffy.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Brush the tops of the buns lightly with beaten egg for a golden finish, if desired.
Bake the buns in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown on top.
Allow Fleisch Perisky to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
