Wash the raisins. I had a large red one, I cut it smaller.

Place the beets and raisins in a thick-bottomed saucepan or frying pan, sprinkle with sugar, add sour cream and simmer over low heat for 10-15 minutes. At the end of the stew I sprinkled more cardamom. The filling behaves perfectly and does not leak at all.

I decided to make the dough with sour cream, since the package of sour cream was already opened :). Grind sour cream, vegetable oil, egg with sugar.

Add flour mixed with salt and baking powder, knead into a soft dough. And put it in the refrigerator while the filling cools.

At the right time, heat the oven to 200 degrees. Divide the dough into small pieces.

Roll each into a circle, put in the filling, sparingly (about a tablespoon), pinch as you like, leaving a small hole.

I don't have any filling left, everything is calculated exactly :). There were 11 pieces of pie crusts.

They can be greased with an egg (I took a quail egg, a chicken egg would have been plenty, but a quail one was just right) or with milk. And place in the oven for 20-25 minutes until slightly browned.

Adviсe

The main component of the filling is beets. This root vegetable contains a large amount of vitamins and microelements. It is indicated for weight loss and in cases of spring vitamin deficiency. To ensure that the filling is not sweet, you should add tomato paste or fresh tomatoes. Other additives and spices are variable and allow you to get different tastes from the same recipe. These can be a variety of vegetables - sweet peppers, green beans, onions and garlic. Try adding mushrooms, Adyghe cheese or cilantro - new shades of flavors will appear in the filling. The beets should be pre-boiled and cooled. All foods must be at room temperature before cooking.
