Each housewife has a signature dish in her arsenal, with which she treats dear guests and beloved family members with special pleasure. It can be an exotic salad or pickles prepared in a special way, or a meat pie. The secret of this signature dish is jealously guarded from strangers, and not everyone will find the strength to generously share their secrets.

Only a person who is completely ignorant of cooking can think that everyone cooks the same way, that if 2 housewives use the same cookbook, then their dishes turn out like from a conveyor belt. Compare one meat pie with another, even if they were baked in the same oven, only the dough was kneaded by different craftswomen, and you yourself will see that their taste is different. Therefore, there is no need to look for rare recipes, add exotic ingredients to the dough and jealously store your culinary finds. All the same, "one to one" will not work, even if you strictly follow the recipe. A good hostess puts a piece of her soul into every dish, and the soul is unique even by definition.

Many inexperienced housewivesafraid to take on the dough. It seems to them that baking, and frying flour products, is such a long and complicated process that they can master it only after numerous trainings, and they won’t succeed the first time. It’s just a pity to translate the products, so they buy baked goods in the nearest cookery, but they don’t believe that meat pies can be cooked quickly and tasty on their own.

But let's take a chance.

We will need:

• flour;
• dry yeast - one and a half teaspoons;
• sugar - 1 tablespoon;
• 2 eggs;
• s alt - 1 teaspoon;
• milk - 1 cup;
• melted butter (margarine) – 50-60 gr.;
• lean oil - 1 tbsp. spoon.

We will make dough from this. It will work for both patties and a huge pie, so instead of many small ones you can bake one big meat pie.

In order to speed up the process, you can use a slow cooker. Knead the dough: in a bowl, beat eggs, s alt, sugar, margarine and milk with a whisk or mixer. When the mass becomes homogeneous, add yeast and begin to gradually add flour. We did not specifically indicate the exact amount of flour that will go for meat pies in a slow cooker, since the types of flour are different, they have different gluten content, and it is impossible to predict exactly how much flour you will need to knead a not very tough dough. After kneading the dough, send it to the multicooker for 20 minutes, setting the heating mode.

Now you canstart stuffing.

For her you will need:

• minced meat - half a kilo;
• onion - 2 pcs.;
• spices to taste.

Preparing the filling is elementary. The onion is finely chopped and fried together with minced meat until golden brown. S alt and pepper the filling.

While you were making the filling, the dough had already risen. We take it out of the multicooker and put it on a table sprinkled with flour. Roll out into equal-sized cakes. So that the meat pie does not look much like a bast shoe on the one hand, and on the other hand does not resemble a canapé, the diameter of the blanks is about five centimeters. We put the filling on each rolled out piece of dough, pinch the edges and leave the pies alone for 10 minutes so that the dough comes up a little.

After this time, put the semi-finished products into the multicooker with the seam down and start the baking mode for about half an hour. As soon as the pies are browned, put them on a dish, cover with a towel and inform your household that it is time for them to wash their hands and sit down to the table.
