How to Make Karelian Pasties Karjalan Piirakat
- In a saucepan, combine 1 cup of rice and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine 3 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tsp of salt, and 1 cup of warm water. Knead the dough for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Divide the dough into small balls (about 1 inch in diameter). Roll each ball into a thin circle (about 4 inches in diameter).
- Spoon a small amount of the cooked rice mixture into the center of each circle.
- Fold the dough over the filling to form a half-moon shape, crimping the edges to seal.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Remove from oven and immediately spread with 2 tablespoons of butter, optionally mixed with 1 tablespoon of mashed boiled egg (munavoi).
- Serve warm and enjoy!
