Instructions

Make the dough: melt the butter and add milk. Heat the mixture to 37C and crumble the yeast into the bowl. Add the butter and milk mixture until the yeast has dissolved. Add sugar, salt, and flour and stir until it becomes a dough. It should loosen from the bowl sides. Cover the bowl, and let rise in a warm place for about 40 minutes.

Meanwhile, boil the eggs until they are hard. Let them cool down, and start to prepare the filling

Filling

• 1 large yellow onion, finely minced
• 250 g  ground beef
• 1 tsp garlic powder or fresh small garlic clove finely minced
• 2 dl cooked rice ( If possible, round corn rice. Something that you would otherwise use for rice pudding, risotto or paella. Asia sticky rice is good, too)
• 6 eggs  from what 4 hard-boiled and chopped fine, 1 for the filling and 1 for pasting the pie
• 1 tsp ground allspice
• salt
• 1 tsp sweet bell pepper powder (paprika)
• 1 meat stock cube
• 150g Mascarpone cheese or sour cream

1. .Put a little butter in your frying pan and fry the onions (and garlic, if you have fresh garlic). Sweat the onions and cook until translucent. Add the ground beef and saute until beef is done, stirring occasionally.
2. Add the cooked rice meat stock cube and saute this mixture for another 5 minutes. Season to taste with paprika powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper, and turn off the heat. Stir the mascarpone/sour cream and chopped boiled eggs into the mixture. Let the filling cool down. When the filling is excellent, mix in one raw egg. This will help to keep the filling together after cooking.
3. Preheat the oven to 225C. Roll out the dough so it fits in a 30 x 40 cm baking dish.(You will need two dough sheets of the same size. This will be really easy if you are using ready-made puff pastry) Put the dough into the dish so that the dough covers the whole dish.
4. Add the filling on top of the dough. Spread evenly. Take the second sheet of your dough, lay it over the filling, and carefully tug and pinch the two dough sheet sides together. Take care that this is done well; otherwise, your filling will come out while you bake.
5. Mix the egg and milk, and paste your pie with it. Bake it on the bottom rack in the oven for about 20-30 minutes. After 20 minutes of baking, cover your pie with foil so it does not get too brown. I used some sesame seeds and parmesan on top as decorations.
6. Let the pie cool out a bit; cut it into pieces that are 3 by 15 centimeters. Serve with salad or with soup as a side dish.
