4 eggs

Dough:

Cottage cheese – 250 g

Margarine or oil – 125 g

2 eggs

Start the preparation of the filling. Take a large, deep frying pan and chop the head of the cabbage there (shred in large, approximately 2 cm squares).

In the end add sifted flour and knead immediately. Then divide the dough into two parts of different sizes, the large of which is rolled with a rolling pin (in size of a baking sheet). Lay it on a baking sheet, lay out the filling with an even layer (there should be a few centimeters at the edges). The filling should lie down tightly, for this you can pat the spatula from above. The smaller part of the dough is also rolled out, and the thickness should turn out a little less than the bottom part. She needs to cover the filling from above. The edges need to be pinned, you can with a fork. Then you can shake the pie so that it would evenly “part” all over the baking sheet. Grease a densely with an egg (one).
