Yeast pie with fish and rice

My grandmother made yeast dough only on yolks, she firmly believed that when only egg yolks were added to the dough, the dough acquired a very soft delicate structure, a pleasant rich taste. I do the same often

Ingredients

• For filling:
• salmon fillet (without skin and bones) - 300-400 g
• butter - 2 tbsp. l
• salt to taste
• black pepper - to taste
• dry rice - 1/3 cup
• onion - 1 pc.
• For impregnation:
• warm milk - 3 tablespoons
• For lubrication:
• fat cream - 3 tbsp
• For the test:
• milk - 200 ml
• egg yolk - 2 pcs.
• sugar - 1 tbsp. l
• salt - 1 tsp
• vegetable oil - 2 tbsp. l
• yeast (dry) - 7 g or fresh - 20 g
• wheat flour - 400 g

Directions

1. To knead the dough in a bread machine: Put all the ingredients in a bowl, set the Main dough mode. For manual kneading: Add warm milk, yeast to a bowl and add 1 tbsp. a spoonful of sugar. Stir the mixture and place in a warm place to dissolve the yeast. After a while, a cap of small bubbles forms on the surface of the mixture. The dough is ready. Next, add yolks, salt, vegetable oil to the milk-yeast mixture and add flour in portions. Knead the dough. Cover the container with the dough with cling film and place in a warm place to rise. After the first rise, knead the dough and put it up again. Then you can start forming the cake.
2. While the dough is rising, you can start cooking the minced meat. To do this, chop the onions in half rings. Dissolve the butter in a frying pan, add chopped onions and sauté the onions until light golden brown. Cut the salmon into thin strips / slices, add fish pieces to the pan with sautéed onions. Put the pan on medium heat and simmer the fish for about 3 minutes. The fish will come to readiness when baking the pie. Rinse the rice and boil in salted water until half cooked. Combine boiled rice and minced fish, add salt and pepper to taste.
3. Grease a baking dish (I have a 30 cm diameter) with butter, sprinkle with flour - make a French shirt (you need to apply a thin layer of butter to the inner surface of the container, then the form is evenly sprinkled with flour, the excess is thoroughly shaken off. As a result, we get the bottom and walls of the form with a thin layer of butter and flour, then you can safely start baking). Divide the dough into two parts, roll one part into a layer. Transfer the dough layer to a baking dish. Make a small side.
4. Place the minced fish on a layer of dough, flatten. Roll out the second layer of dough, leaving a small piece for the subsequent decoration of the cake.
5. Close the minced fish with a rolled layer, tuck the edges to the center. Press down lightly on the surface of the cake. In the middle, make a hole for the steam that forms during baking to escape. Roll out a layer from the remaining piece of dough, cut out any decor. I have a nautical picture.
6. Grease the surface of the pie with heavy cream and send it to an oven preheated to 180C for baking. Bake until golden brown.
7. Take out the cake, soak its surface with warm milk with a brush (so that the top is soft) and cover with a towel for 10 minutes.
8. Then you can cut and serve.
