This is a classic Ukrainian pastry typically used for savoury and meat-based dishes.

Ingredients:

500g plain flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
110g butter, chilled and diced
2 eggs, lightly beaten
250ml sour cream
1 egg yolk, beaten

Method:

Sift the flour and baking powder onto a pastry board. Form a well in the centre then ad the butter. Using your fingers (or a pastry cutter) combine the butter and flour until you have granules resembling cornmeal.

Meanwhile, combine the eggs, egg yolk, salt and sour cream in a bowl. Whisk to combine then add just enough of the liquid to the flour and butter mix to bring it together as a fairly stiff dough (make certain the dough is not wet). If the dough is not holding together then simply add a little more of the egg mix.

Wrap in a damp tea cloth then place in the refrigerator to chill for 1 hour. Use as you would any other dough.
