Step by Step Method
Step 1
Thaw bread dough, if frozen or make the equivalent amount using your own favorite bread recipe. Let dough rise.
Step 2
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, melt butter. Add cabbage and onion , stir until they are covered with butter. Cover the pan and cook 10 minutes or until the vegetables are tender. Increase heat to high and add ground beef. Cook, stirring frequently until beef loses its pink color. Reduce heat to medium. Stir in salt, pepper and flour. Cook 1 more minute and stir constantly.
Step 3
Lightly grease a baking sheet. On a lightly floured surface, cut bread dough into 4 to 6 equal pieces. With floured rolling pin, roll and stretch each piece into an oval about 1/8 inch thick. Spoon meat mixture into the middle of each dough piece. Pull up the corners of the dough and pinch seams together to hold the mixture inside.
Step 4
Place seam side down on prepared baking sheet; set aside and allow to rise for 20 to 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 350. Brush with beaten egg and sprinkle with caraway seeds. Bake 25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and serve warm or at room temperature.
