- Make dough with egg mixed with hot water and salt, stirring flour in gradually and mixing well, adding a little more flour if needed. Knead till smooth and hard. Let rest 10 min, covered with a hot bowl.
- Roll out very thin on lightly floured surface. Cut with 4 inch round cutter (top of coffee canister). Place about 2 Tbsp. filling in center of each and fold over (like a turnover, or possibly pull sides up to center); moisten edges and fold over a little, like a pie crust (to seal).
- Drop gently into 2 qts of boiling salted water. Cook for about 5 min or possibly till they float. Don't crowd when cooking or possibly they will stick together.
- Remove with slotted spoon and serve warm, covered with onions sauteed in butter or possibly with lowfat sour cream. Or possibly, after removing from the boiling water, let cold and fry in butter or possibly fat over low heat till brown and crisp.
- Pirozhki can be boiled, deep-fried, or possibly baked. If they are to be baked, brush top with lowfat milk and beaten egg before baking in a well greased pan in a 350 degree oven for 25 to 30 min. Pirozhki can be frzn by wrapping in Saran after boiling or possibly baking and then freezing.
