Miner's Pie (Rudarska Greblica)
Ingredients:
Dough:
- 400 g all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon lard
- 200 ml homemade cream
- A pinch of salt
- 1 egg yolk
- A pinch of yeast (tip of a knife)
Filling:
- 1 drained homemade cow's cheese
- 1 egg white
- 2 whole eggs
- Salt to taste
- Chopped spinach (fresh, first lightly salt and squeeze out excess moisture, then add the spinach leaves to the cheese)
Preparation:
Mix all the ingredients for the dough and cover with a lid to let the dough rest (preferably the day before or at least for an hour, in a plastic bag to prevent a crust from forming).
While the dough rests, prepare the filling (cheese mixture) and mix it well. Roll out the dough on a flat surface. Grease a baking dish with lard. Place the dough in the dish so that the top edges hang over the sides, then spread the cheese mixture on the bottom part. Fold the dough over the filling and pinch the edges. Brush with homemade cream or cooking cream (3 tablespoons).
Bake at 180°C for 20-25 minutes, let it cool slightly, and enjoy your pie. Bon appétit!
