Cut the onion into quarters and fry until transparent.

Place the cabbage in a sieve, let it cool a little, squeeze it well, and place it with the onion.

Add salt, black pepper and a piece of butter. As soon as the butter melts, turn off the stove. The filling is ready, let it cool down.

Now let's get to the dough. Add 3 grams of dry yeast to 500 milliliters of warm kefir, mix, and leave for a few minutes.

Break one egg into a bowl, add a level teaspoon of salt, a tablespoon of sugar, 50 milliliters of vegetable oil (odorless), stir until smooth, add kefir with yeast.

Add sifted flour in parts, do not forget to add a level teaspoon of soda.

At the end of kneading, add a piece of butter in parts. The dough should stand in a warm place for 30-40 minutes.
