Step-by-step cooking

Cooking time: 1 h

Step 1:
Prepare all the necessary ingredients for making the dough. Chicken egg and kefir should be at room temperature, so take them out of the refrigerator in advance (about an hour).
Step 2:
Beat the egg with a whisk. It is not necessary to beat for a long time, just until smooth, so that the protein is mixed with the yolk.
Step 3:
Pour in the kefir at room temperature, add salt and mix again with a whisk.
Step 4:
Pour in the flour sifted with soda and mix. I sift the flour directly into the dough.
Step 5:
You should get a semi-viscous, flowing dough, the consistency of a biscuit. If the dough is too viscous and lumpy, pour in a little more kefir or milk.
Step 6:
Set the dough aside and do the filling. You can use any cheese to your liking. It can be mozzarella, cheese, Adyghe cheese, etc. I have a regular "Russian".
Step 7:
Grate the cheese on a coarse grater.
Step 8:
Wash, dry and finely chop the greens. I used a bunch of cilantro and half a bunch of parsley. You can add any greens to your liking: dill, parsley, cherry leaves, etc .
Step 9:
In a bowl, combine grated cheese, chopped herbs and ground black pepper. Mix everything thoroughly. For piquancy, you can add 1-2 cloves of garlic to the filling, passed through a press.
Step 10:
Pour half of the dough into a greased baking dish.
Step 11:
Spread the cheese filling evenly on it.
Step 12:
Carefully pour the remaining dough on top. It should cover the entire filling. Place the pie in a preheated 180 ° C oven for 30-40 minutes until a golden crust appears on the surface of the dough. To do this, I held the pie for another 15 minutes in the cooling oven with the door slightly ajar. So the crust is formed faster.
Step 13:
Cool the pie slightly, cut into pieces and serve to the table until hot and the cheese has had time to harden and stretches pleasantly with each bite. In cold form, by the way, it also turns out very tasty. Enjoy your meal!
