BIEROCKS (GERMAN STUFFED ROLLS)

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, mix milk and sugar to dissolve the sugar. Sprinkle yeast over the milk mixture and let stand for 5-10 minutes, until the yeast softens and starts to foam.
• Whisk the mixture to combine and whisk in 2 c of flour.
• Add melted butter, egg, and salt. Whisk to incorporate.
• Stir in the remaining flour ¼ c at a time, using only as much as you need to get the dough to come together. Turn the dough onto your counter and knead, for 10-15 min, until a soft, smooth dough forms, adding flour as needed. (Your finished dough should be tacky, but not stick to your hand or your kneading surface.)
• Shape dough into a round; place it in a greased bowl, turning to coat the dough. Cover the dough loosely with plastic wrap or a damp towel and place in a warm, draft-free place to rise until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
• While the dough rises, make your filling. In a large non-stick frying pan, brown meat over medium-high until mostly cooked, 5-7 min.
• Drain as much of the grease from the pan as you can, while not losing the meat from the pan. Return the pan to the heat and add onions. Cook 2-3 min, until they begin to soften.
• Add cabbage and cook 7-10 minutes, until cabbage is tender.
• Remove filling from heat and season with salt and pepper.
• Knock back the risen dough and turn it onto your work surface.
• Divide dough into 8 balls (roughly 3 oz each). Flatten each ball to a circle 4-5" in diameter. (If the dough springs back, flatten as much as you can, cover, and let the dough rest for 3-5 min before attempting to flatten further.)
• Spoon 2 large tablespoons of filling onto the center of each circle, leaving the edges clear.
• Bring the edges together and pinch them to seal the dough completely. Continue until all the dough and filling has been used.
• Place the shaped bierocks on a greased baking sheet and let rise, covered 30-45 min, until roughly 1.5x their original size.
• During the last 10 minutes of rising time preheat your oven to 375F.
• Brush the bierocks lightly with milk and bake for 20-25 min, until golden brown and hollow sounding when tapped.
• Remove from oven and let cool on a wire rack.
