Equipment

  • Pie Dish
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Sauté Pan
  • Rolling Pin

Ingredients

For the Crust

  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour Unbleached flour offers the best texture.
  • 0.5 cups Butter Use cold unsalted butter.
  • 1 large Egg Helps bind the crust ingredients.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Enhances the flavor of the crust.

For the Filling

  • 1 head Cabbage Look for firm heads without brown spots.
  • 1 large Onion Sweet onions are ideal.
  • 2 cups Cheese Sharp cheddar recommended.
  • 0.5 cups Sour Cream Full-fat sour cream is preferred.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Adjust to your liking.
  • 0.5 teaspoon Pepper Adjust to your liking.

Optional Toppings

  • 1 cup Extra Cheese For a cheesier finish.
  • Fresh Herbs Chopped parsley or dill.

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Prepare the crust by mixing all-purpose flour and salt in a bowl. Cut in cold, unsalted butter until crumbly.
  • Combine one beaten egg and chilled water with the flour mixture. Form into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for about 30 minutes.
  • Sauté chopped onions in butter over medium heat until soft, about 5 minutes. Add shredded cabbage and cook until wilted, around 5-7 minutes.
  • Mix in shredded cheese, sour cream, salt, and pepper with the cabbage mixture. Allow to cool slightly.
  • Roll out chilled dough, place it in a pie dish, fill with cabbage mixture, and top with extra cheese if desired.
  • Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown. Cool slightly before slicing.
  • Optional: Garnish with fresh herbs.

Notes

Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor and texture. Refrigerating the crust is crucial for flakiness.
