Russian Cabbage Pie
Ingredients
- 3 - 4 cups of shredded cabbage
- 1 medium onion cut into petals
- 3 Eggs
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 cup freshly chopped dill
- sesame seeds for garnish
- chives or green onion for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F
- Steam/saute the onions in a small amount of olive oil until softened.
- Meanwhile core the cabbage and cut or shred the leaves into thin strips. Toss the cabbage with the salt in a large mixing bowl and crush it with your hands.
- Stir in the onions and dill. Transfer the vegetables to a prepared 9" pie plate (I used cooking spray)
- Beat the eggs, then stir in the sour cream and mayonnaise. Add the flour and baking powder and mix to form a batter.
- Pour over top the cabbage and onions. I stirred mine all together, but in the original recipe it looks like she spread the batter over the top.
- Garnish with the chives and sesame seeds.
- Bake for 30 minutes or until the top turns golden.
Notes
Fresh dill will make a big difference to the flavor of your cabbage pie, but if you can't find any, substitute 2 tablespoons of dried dill leaves.
