Bierocks Recipe

Dough: Dissolve yeast in warm water. Mix together sugar, salt, egg and margarine. Add to yeast mixture. Add 4 cups (or so) flour to make a sponge; beat thoroughly by hand or with electric mixer. Stir in additional flour until dough can be kneaded; turn onto a floured board and knead until smooth and elastic. Chill dough several hours.

Meat Filling: Brown meat and onion in a skillet. Add cabbage, salt, pepper and Tabasco. Cover meat mixture and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally until cabbage is tender. Do not add liquid. Cool slightly.

To prepare, roll dough into thin sheets. Cut into 5-inch squares. Place 2 tablespoons of meat mixture on each square. Fold dough pocket and pinch together to seal well. Place pinched side down on lightly greased cookie sheet. Let rise 15 minutes.

Bake at 350 degrees F. for 20-30 minutes, until lightly browned. Makes 10 servings.
