Instruction manual
1
Cook the dough. Pour the flour into a bowl and pour there a glass of water and 100 g of melted butter. Add salt. Shuffle so that there are no lumps. Wrap the mass in plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator for an hour.
2
Then remove and roll into a rectangle, sprinkled with flour. Spread the remaining chilled oil over the formation. Roll it up to make it almost a square. Roll it out.
3
Repeat such cooling-rolling at least four more times. If you have little time, buy ready-made puff pastry. The main thing is that it was not intended for baking (a lot of sugar), but for fresh baking.
4
Get stuffed. Finely chop the onion and fry it in vegetable oil in a pre-heated frying pan for 5 minutes. Then chop the mushrooms, best of the mushrooms, and also cook for about 5-7 minutes. Boil rice in salted water. You can take any variety, the main thing is that it is polished.
5
Mix rice, onion and mushrooms, and finely chopped boiled egg can also be added to the minced meat. Salt and pepper the mixture. Prepare the fish. Cut it into thin plastics, but do not mix with the rest of the filling.
6
Take out the finished puff pastry, divide into two parts. Roll them out thin enough. Lay one of the layers on a greased baking sheet. Spread on it a stuffing from mushrooms, rice and other components. Then lay on top of the plastic fish. They should cover the entire filling. Cover the pie with a second layer of dough, pinch the edges. Make a hole in the cake to allow steam to escape. Lubricate the surface of the cake with whipped yolk to form a golden brown. Bake the cake in an oven, preheated to 180 degrees, until cooked. Serve warm.
