Echpochmak (Tatar Triangular Meat Pastry)
One serving has 653 kcal and 26 g protein, and at least a fifth of a woman's daily need of cobalamin (107%), niacin (77%), selenium (76%), thiamin (59%), zinc (55%) and riboflavin (51%). Ready in 58 minutes.
- Preparation: 20 min
- Cooking: 38 min
- Makes: 1 serving (306 g)
- Difficulty: Medium
- Contains: beef, celery, dairy, gluten, meat
Ingredients
- 60 g Flour, all-purpose
- 10 g Butter, unsalted
- 25 g Water
- 1 g Salt
- 110 g Lamb, ground, raw
- 50 g Potatoes, raw
- 30 g Onions, raw
- 0.3 g Black pepper
- 20 g Beef broth
Method
- Rub the butter into the flour, then mix in the salt and water to make a smooth, firm dough; wrap and rest for 20 minutes.
- Finely dice the lamb, potato and onion by hand, since traditional echpochmak filling is knife-cut rather than ground, and mix with the pepper.
- Roll the dough into circles, spoon the filling into the centre of each, then fold up three sides to form a triangle, pinching the seams well but leaving a small hole at the top.
- Pour a little of the beef broth into the hole before the final seal, so the filling stays juicy as it bakes.
- Bake at 200 °C (400 °F) for 35-40 minutes until the pastry is golden and the lamb is cooked through with no pink remaining (74 °C/165 °F).
- Serve hot; the rich broth inside is traditionally sipped from the hole before eating the pastry.
