Mushroom pie (unbelievably delicious)
Description
The recipe won't take much time. This pie turns out special thanks to its unique dough. It doesn't require lengthy kneading, becomes elastic, and rises well in the oven. For the filling, you can use any mushrooms and vegetables, but be sure to add feta cheese and a dressing made of sour cream and cheese—they bind all the ingredients together and give a pleasant creamy aroma. Note that you don't need to fry the onion and carrot in a pan; just cook them until soft and simmer them with the mushrooms. It's best to drain excess liquid from the filling—this will make the pie tastier. The baked dish is ready. Serve at the table.
