Dough:

  • 10-11 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 pkg (1/4 oz) active dry yeast
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 2-1/2 cup water
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 2 eggs

Filling:

  • 2 lb. ground beef
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp ground white pepper
  • 2 lb. shredded cabbage, cooked and drained

Instructions/Steps

Dough:
  • In a large bowl, combine 4 cups flour, yeast, sugar, and salt.

  • Combine with flour mixture.
  • Add eggs and blend at low speed until moistened, then beat at medium speed for 3 minutes.
  • By hand, stir in enough of the remaining flour to make a firm dough. Knead 10 min. on floured surface.
  • Place in greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour. Punch down, let rise again until doubled. (While dough is rising, make filling) Divide dough into fourths.
  • Roll each piece into a 15 in x 10 in rectangle.
  • Cut into 5 inch squares.
  • Spoon 1/3 to 1/2 cup filling onto each square.
  • Bring the four corners up over the filling and pinch together to seal.
  • Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
  • Place on greased baking sheets. Bake at 375 deg F for 30 min. or until nicely browned.
