Fantasticly lush cakes according to the recipe of the Metropol restaurant, which can be cooked with any filling

Spring has come, and some gardens have already appeared feathers of fragrant green onions. Therefore, it is difficult to resist not to make good old cakes with eggs and green onions. But where can I find a proven recipe?



We decided to make it easier for readers to search and offer a recipe shared by the author of cookery books and TV presenter Alexander Seleznev. Favorite pastry Alla Pugacheva remembered how he once worked in the restaurant “Metropol”. According to him, the dough for cakes with green onions there was kneaded only on warm milk.

Egg and green onion cakes Ingredients for dough
  • 1kg flour
  • 125g sugar
  • 23g salt
  • 4 eggs
  • 400g warm milk
  • 20g dry yeast
  • 125g soft butter


Filling ingredients
  • 5 eggs
  • greenbow
  • butter
  • salt and pepper


Preparation
  1. Mix sifted flour, sugar, salt, eggs, milk and yeast in a bowl.


  2. Start mixing and adding 125 grams of soft butter.
  3. Stir it longer so that the dough becomes elastic.
  4. Then cover the film and leave for 1.5 hours in a warm place. Seleznev recalls that in the restaurant they poured warm water into the sink and put a bowl into it.


  5. After this time, the dough should rise well. Put it on a table sprinkled with flour, and form koloboks of 50-70 grams. Cover them with film and let them stand for another 30 minutes.


  6. In the meantime, the filling can be prepared. Boil, peel and cut the eggs finely. With a variety of funny life hacks that allow you to easily clean eggs, we introduced readers in one of the articles.
  7. Chop the green onions and lightly roast in butter.
  8. Mix roasted onions with eggs, salt and pepper filling. We add that the filling here can also be vegetable, mushroom, meat or fruit. Universal dough is perfectly combined with any of them.
  9. Roll the dough balls into the cakes.
  10. Place a spoonful of stuffing in the center of each cake. It does not have to consist of eggs and onions. Anything else will do.
  11. Plutch the dough and turn the cakes down. Let them get a little closer.


  12. After that, grease the egg and lay it on a paper-covered pan.


  13. Bake for 15-20 minutes in the oven heated to 180 degrees.
  14. Smear hot cakes with melted butter and cover with a towel.


  15. The cakes are simply unrealistically soft and sweet. And most importantly, on the second day they are just as delicious. Bon appetit!
